I don't know if I'm doing it wrong or if she is. I didn't realize the goal was to accumulate followers.

I was in the same boat until I saw her timeline. 😳

I follow people who share my political views, or who post things that interest me. It’s not all that important if I get followed back.

I don't expect to ever be a big account, and I'm not sure that I'd even want to be, so I'm more focused on quality over quantity.

Same same! I’m planning to better curate next weekend. No offense to the huge accounts, but they’re easy to find on the one tab, and frequently reposted anyhow! I got too gung ho on my first day, and am hardly seeing some of my fave smaller accounts 😵

I was gonna follow you, but you have 420 followers rn and I didn’t want to be the person to wreck that magic number

I did at the cesspool because of the arbitrary following/follower ratio rule. In two weeks here, I already have more followers than I had in over 11 years there. I credit Brown Eyed Girl with that since she put me in her starter pack. I wish someone would develop a drag queen starter pack.

Follow backs are nice but that kind of entitlement is crazy. If she wants followers so badly, maybe she should focus on making followable content and stop worrying about other accounts

The only person who will suffer from this is the OP, who will miss out on seeing what interesting people have to say.

Exactly who do they think they are trying to tell other people how to use social media? I follow accounts because they post content I like, maybe that's why they don't get follow backs. a quick look over their timeline shows reposts and angry demands more than fresh content

I don’t need the added pressure of trying to find something interesting or witty to post for “my followers”. Kamala doesn’t care about the delicious breakfast I had while I was on vacation 🤣

Someone thinks well of themselves. Lil Mx needs to up their tantrum game.

Flexxxxxin 😋 Love your content sis, even though it’s infuriating it’s relevant and important and you always bring the right reply in your cold open 😬🫡😍

Is this person for real? They should be happy for any engagement at all. I had basically zero over in the bad place for literally months. I'm having fun here, and that's all that matters.

Holy shit, Mary. Calm down. This is too pathetic to handle right now.

Aubrey, please don't follow me back, I'm really not that interesting

Never do this cause it's gross and unimportant, but will make this one exception cause you annoy me, Mary 62, and I just made a list so this tweet keeps coming back. So here goes, I have more followers than you do bitch bwahahaha . 😁

What is wrong with that person? And is it ok to report her for just being an obnoxious asshole?🙂

The only ones whining about this have some financial grift (bitcoin or whatever). I don't automatically follow back for this reason. No posts? No follow back. Bitcoin or similar? No follow, and a block to top it off.

Do we call this BXE (big x energy), or XBE (blockable x energy)? Just so I know for when the acronym becomes canon…

How is it discourse if nobody knows who that person is? 🤔

Same.

I blocked her. I haven’t got time for that shit.

Follow me back or else, please, sit down.

I don’t get this. Not everyone in whom I am interested would necessarily find what I post interesting- so why should I demand they follow me back? People are so weird about this.

Fortunately, they're unlikely to find out.

That kind of shit gives me hives. No one is owed attention or engagement - ON or OFFLINE. That’s all kinds of ick. Hell, I can barely locate the accounts I used to follow I hardly expect any of them to follow me back!

I mean, say what you want to say and who gives a rat's smelly ass who is or isn't following you...for fuck's sake, this isn't the high school cafeteria.

I'll have you know she once scored four touchdowns in a single game back in high-school.

OMG what’s that a ransom note

How we handle this sort of crazy is how we will keep Bluesky fun and sane.

What in the world 🤣🤣🤣 Nobody owes anybody anything for a follow
