Since many of us are here due to the #TwitterMigration and are relatively "fresh" at following folks - what are the three main reasons you'd follow someone here?
For me it's:
1. They said something interesting or educational that made me think;
2. They followed me and they look interesting; and/or
3. We have common interests as evidenced by posts, bios, and/or hashtags (which means finding community)
@TeacherGriff I guess that depends on what one looks for, be it human-level conversations, elitist banter, broadcasting yourself, or just sh*tposting. Nothing wrong with either, people derive pleasure from different things.
I am primarily interested in human interactions, conversations. So from your list, it's mostly (1) for me. My strategy is to follow liberally and then every now and then weed out, or simply mute people who either turn out toxic, or broadcast things I don't like, don't understand, or consider waste of time.
