#FollowGraph I asked the question to the guy that wrote it ( @gabipurcaru ) 2 years ago. It says in his profile he works for M E T A as of the time of that, and hasn't been here since 2022. Or almost anywhere else he used to post since.

But the code is on #github, here https://github.com/gabipurcaru/followgraph

It's written in TypeScript, which is Javascript with added "types". I can read and write JS but any basic fluency is in object manipulation - page appearance - not data hacking. So this is beyond me unless I do a lot of studying. Rain is stopping me working on what I should be right now, so I'm reading this TypeScript tutorial at w3cschools: https://www.w3schools.com/typescript/typescript_intro.php

another issue for me is I need a similar tutorial to walk me around a GitHub page.

never wanted to sign-up for anything run / owned by Microsoft.

boosting might get some gitHub-familiar response

Another great way to help discover accounts you are interested in here is Followgraph.

https://followgraph.vercel.app/

Basically this is a cool way to find accounts that follow accounts that you follow, under the assumption that you might want to follow them too.

Here is a thread with suggestions how to best use Followgraph...

@ml I see! You mean something like #FollowGraph?

https://followgraph.vercel.app/
(I haven’t really used it myself but it seems like it would be useful to find people to follow, who then might follow you back. It would be better if it only suggested active people though, which I don’t think it does at the moment)
