"Follow me and I'll follow you"
Seriously though. Follower count is a useless statistic, for the most part, you have no way of knowing what sort of people are following you. I'd rather have 10 followers that read my posts, comment, upvote, interact... than 10'000 followers that never look at anything I write.
I recently celebrated my follower count hitting the lofty heights of 50 but in hindsight, I think I'd rather go back through my posts and count the comments, celebrate those milestones instead.
It certainly is an issue with the platform. Mutual upvoting, mutual following. Upvoting content because you think it will go viral, not because YOU like it, just for the curation payout.
Give me a commenter any day over a follower!
That said... I will follow you, but before you even dare think of following me, read my wall, decide whether you will actually read my posts again or will they just clog up your wall.
Be a smart follower, not a fart swallower!
6 days to go! You can still make it. And remember, the jury might be on your side. π
Please spread the word and resteem. I would like to increase the prize for #2. Peace βοΈ and Love β€οΈ
Are you one of those? One of those that decide on who will follow you? No no nonooo, I assumed nobody like that existed.
The real problem to address here is the feed system, I like to have lots of content to randomly look through when I can, I don't at this point. As a content creator having tons of time just to look at posts isn't possible, but we may see some content, never all of it, I would rather have a big feed number at this point in Steemit's lifecycle,
So when I see 200-400 feeds up I know that most of who I follow are active...with this feed system, no grid, no following list of active creators listed, it will be very tough to look for JUST YOU, but I did follow you, and I hope we get to see your content! I do follow my followers!
Although after 7 days, your content is dead....here..thats another subject for another comment..later.
Steemit needs to keep old content alive. Take an adventure @laurtanton.
Was this just a comment to @stormriderstudio as it was below his comment, or do you want to enter in the challenge with it? :)
hmm, I think with the amount of comments you have, this meager attempt at portraying my thoughts is not going to win anything, but thanks for the reply, its ok, this was a real reply back to him, but since the blog was about comments, i'd figure too make it a longer type^^ thank you! It's a really cool contest, It should be a great addition to Steemit! I don't think you should enter this into the contest, because its a reply to a contest person? later. If I get time I'll enter one! I did upvote his post, @stormriderstudio's comment did make me comment back^^
