#FollowFriday

In my three weeks of being a self-appointed Walmart greeter here on #Mastodon, I've noticed people looking for a connection. Just someone to follow them.

So I follow them. Why? Because it costs me nothing, other than time to say hello and click the "+" button.

Many of these folks are shy. Often they're not big posters anyway. So they're not crowding my Home timeline.

And when they do post?  So cool. And I think, "There's my new friend! I wonder what they have to say?"

Absolutely this! We all had to start with that one follower.
@Peri_Jnet Right!? And we all appreciated it too when we got our first. It's always fun to return that favor.
@donmelton and as you said, it costs nothing. Kindness is not something that runs out.
