Alex Hillman ⚡️#meta sooooo if you got a follow from tayswift it’s apparently a weird experiment but not technically a bot.
No immediate plans to block the instance from ours. Annoying but not nefarious. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
teaneedz 🍄@alexhillman Thx for busting my bubble. Here I thought I my tooting expertise was paying off.
On the other hand, this might be the first instance when I appreciated seeing following/followers numbers.

@alexhillman don’t tell my 5 year old niece. #CoolUncle
don't panic!@alexhillman How does the #nobot tag work, should it go in a user’s profile if they want to block bots (who honor it) from following them?
@chip yup exactly that
@alexhillman Thanks. as soon as I added that tag to a toot, I was followed by Federation Bot ([email protected]).
@chip yep! he's a good bot, helps connect the network of Mastodon instances.
@alexhillman Makes sense, thanks for the guidance.
Amanda Clark Renzulli@alexhillman Reeeeally? I just went to her show in July. I was about to ask her if we're best friends.
@captnpollyanna I mean don't let me stop you
