@dansup @pixelfed I don’t think followers/following should be public. Tops, only visible to the user. In my opinion, the decision on following someone should not be based on how many followers someone has, not give the opportunity to monetise, and should not help with the “like” culture that promotes depression and anxiety.
Follow
But that comes down to projecting your personal values on other users who likely have different values from your own.
It's great that you use the platform that way, but others use it in different ways, that give them more value.
Leave the control in the hands of the user, I'd say. Let the user decide whether they do or don't value that information.
