All of Nanocheeze's followers are follow-backs. He has followed over ten thousand people (that he recently unfollowed to make him look less like spam) and some of them follow back. That's how he gets followers. If you look at his videos, the upvote count is very, very low. The majority of his posts have less upvotes and less value than mine do, despite me only having 100 followers and him 4000. His only value seems to be from bots. Sure, everyone uses bots at some point, but he never had any breakout posts.
It shows that the stupid can't make good use of this platform. Number of followers does not matter. Dedicated followers do.
