People are totally horrified by it. 😂
And they write nasty comments in their little gossip threads:
Of _course_ nobody follows her. We follow npubs who follow other npubs, not npubs who REFUSE TO FOLLOW and don't say GM.
Hoes mad. 😂
I'm not some influencer; I'm just a normal person. Read my stuff, if you like it and find it interesting. Or don't.
Why do they care so much?
Because they use clients and relays that require you to be followed, to be seen, so they feel like I'm a free-rider because they have a crappy setup cuz they're cheap and/or lazy.
To be fair, I'm sometimes okay with only seeing those I explicitly want to see. But I'm am interested in figuring out how to not need that sort of setup. I can see a case for it.
It’s like coming to the theater and sitting in the first row facing the back. Everyone will notice and many will gossip about it trying to figure out what you know that they don’t while trying desperately to appear as if they know what they are doing and agreeing that conventions need to be followed or we all devolve into wildlings.
