Cleaned up my follow list and found 3 things:

1) A few accounts marked as “old/deleted.” This is GREAT etiquette. Unfollowed old npubs, followed new if it was listed.

2) Several accounts with no activity for over a week. I assume they gave up on Nostr or moved to new npubs that I don’t have. Unfollowed.

3) SO MANY people playing the follow/unfollow game to boost their own follower count. Unfollowed for gross iNfLuEnCeR behavior 🤮

Also, follower ratio doesn’t matter here. Nobody even knows for sure how many followers you have because it changes so much 🤣

I try to clean up every so often as well. Noticed that as well.

The initial wave we had around Christmas was full of failed accounts. A lot of the accounts I unfollowed was no activity for a month. Your week cut off is a bit harsh. 🤣

What is the follow/unfollow game? Many people are losing follows through no fault of their own, so they should be encouraged to follow them again. Nostrgram has a follow history tool now that makes this easy.

I started unfollowing: 1. Most influencers who post 1-liners 2. Anyone who posts Twitter links 3. Anyone that posts giant messages bc Damus doesn’t have read more 😆 block them too for now sadly; even if content is great! Double sad.

3) might be a game for some but it’s also a reality that the following list gets overwritten and you need to do it to after the incident. Has happened multiple times for me.

Was just considering doing a round of cleanup.

I was hoping the follow/unfollow game wouldn't find its way here. When I was prompted to follow all accounts and saw that it was just 1100 or so, I followed everyone because I thought it was cool to connect with all of the early users. I was part of the dot com crowd in NYC in the late nineties and...

I hope it's ok to take a one week break from nostr...
