I follow a friend right now hahahah, he has a good trail, he's @lunaticpandora. I don't honestly know whom he follows.
Right now, I haven't researched the new algo enough to know how to improve. I have a few theories that I'd like to play with, including following a selection of curators for OCD, following some big votes, and, you know, just testing to see what works and what doesn't. I could use other accounts to test alternative trail settings and then import the best settings to the main account.
I also have the knowhow to make my own scripts to have some smarter algorithms, but it takes a lot of time and I'm busy with other kinds of work that pay better. If I were to get paid to make these curation/vote bots, I would certainly approach this with more enthusiasm and success ;)
