Woah crazy. I donāt even bother looking at my follower list, I figure itās mostly just bots anyways.

Probably is. I'm thinking follow count only says anything concrete, if you only look at private/paid relays.
That's my current workaround, at any rate.
Figuring out a reliable way to actually check that stat would help nostr, i know devs made a bunch of follow bots back in the day and boosted peopleās numbers for the lols to demonstrate its brokenness
I guess the idea is that they could be lurkers, but lurkers usually change the profile info a bit, if they do more than look around one time. These are all identical, so single-use npubs.
