Most retarded take: Some people have 200k followers, while others can barely get 200, because the former engages more with other Nostriches. You are trying to make connections between numbers that have no direct relationship.
Never expect someone to admit to having some asymmetric advantage when maintaining their position depends upon denying it.
Always expect that person to fight and protest against any attempt to remove that advantage and level the playing field. I have no advantage! And don't you dare take it away!
Same. 😂 I also am not afraid of competing at a harder game. I am a never-ending found of interesting and engaging content. Bring it.
That tactic would work better on a content-focused app like #Alexandria, but worse on a timeline. Timelines are about being immediate, novel, and frequent.
Yeah, I try to engage with people about all sorts of topics, but only a few catch on. Simply no market for the other stuff.
Here's how you get followers: Be famous. Be rich. Be female. Have friends who are famous, rich, and/or female, and boost your stuff. Pay people directly. Be one of the first people here. Be unusually interesting or informative. Some combination thereof.
The best is when dull women lecture men to "post more interesting, engaging content". Imagine spending your entire life being so cute that you don't even notice how boring you are.
Or if you simply don't have the talent. Some people engage avidly, but nobody follows them because it's sort of incoherent or whatnot.
Same, but I've had to think through how to choose my client and configure my relays, and that is apparently beyond many people. Clients are going to have to pre-chew a lot more, but avoid just showing everyone the same stuff or hard-coding everything.
I have the weirdest npub of all, as it's not that big, follower-wise, and it rarely gets quoted or boosted, it's not on any lists (except naughty lists), and it's been muted by lots of popular people, but it still regularly trends. My content is much more popular than I am. I guess that makes me the opposite of whatever an influencer is. 😁
Well, yeah. Of course, I'm biased because I think follows are obsolete legacy tech and should just be put out of their misery. 😂
