Apparently 194 of my followers came from auto follow, a whoppin' 7%.

How should we feel about a system that pushed hundreds of thousands of auto follows to some accounts, to bootstrap their local celebrity status?

Is this a premine? 😅

I told people last summer to cast in channels. People who casted in channels and got engagement got added to the list.

200+ people were in the pool.

That's a lot of words to say "yes, it's a premine". :P

I casted in channels, I even co-hosted ~5 channels, had a number of high engagement posts, I definitely earned my 194 autofollows per this formula!

Tysm for speaking up

The people who are on the auto follow list are boring and deserve to compete with the rest of us for virality

Placed 100+ in crypto jobs. Found the gaps, fixing them. 3x grant-backed founder building @interestedfyi to reshape onchain hiring. Ex @ConsenSysMesh.

next time you can just call me boring to my face, it’ll motivate me to cast better content

They already competed when the network had hardly anyone posting on it.
