psst, those accounts that follow and unfollow you 100x are just trying to grow their follower counts
you can mute them 😂

Super annoying. I like not seeing them on Damus tbh
Indeed, iI noticed that on primal, but likely #Amethyst also save us from it.
But I don't get what's the point? What's the incentive?
They hope people notice and follow them back. Growing the following count without genuine interactions. Scammy
Oh my God but that's so stupid 😅 I got annoyed after the second time I noticed, would never follow. Ahahah
Anyway I noticed also months ago primal effectively had issues with following new people after a max number of following and it would reset to that cap. But I believe that's fixed now.
It’s so stupid. At least say hi on a post or something. Probably they do it this way because they think we can’t call them out on it. Like maybe it’s a notification bug. They’re just stupid
Was wondering if that happened to anyone else. Quite annoying
Primal apparently ignores mutes for follows.
I was wondering about this
I always thought relays were acting up.
Since I know that they do sometimes.
Primal can be finicky with this too.
But now that you mention this, it kind of gives a different perspective I didn't really consider.
Unfortunately, it's an attack vector that probably is harder to exploited by conventional social media since they would probably reach a timeout limit.
🤣 I thought it was something wrong with primal so it was notifying me more than once 🤦🏻♀️
I guess it takes longer for some people to understand Nostr is different.
