Ah, okay, it's probably the filter pulling them in over WoT, then. Thanks!
I wish people wouldn't follow bots.

No prob, I wonder how it's happening too, if you end up finding out lmk.. I guess you probably need a wot visualizer or something. Filter says it's only follows of follows. So that seems weird that it pulls in so many bots. Tho bots may be getting tricky like that getting people to follow em, and that's why wot is just another game for them to play that costs them nothing. Heh.
Just FYI: filter only applies WoT filter to global, not replies/thread view.
Perhaps it’s time to revisit this or at least have an option, but it was designed that way originally so that you could view direct replies from anyone (including new/unknown users).
Oh, that's probably why then. By pulling all comments and reactions from all those free relays, bots don't have to do anything but tag you.
more likely all you sillies with your hundreds of follows are giving them an in that way
i am still under 50 follows and my feed is crispy clean
