Having almost 2.2k followers is kinda scary for me, on birdsite I had a little over 300 and I felt that was excessive for me.

I tend to delete content that I make if it becomes too popular and when I used to stream regularly, I preferred streaming to under 5 people than to 50 people. On TikTok I would delete videos that would get too many views too quickly. I regularly tell my friends that I'll delete my YouTube channel if it gets too many subs.

I guess I'm from a different internet. 🤣

@KuJoe the powerful and compassionate introverted voice!
@alchemystic What's funny is I'm actually an extrovert, I love talking with people and making friends and just interacting with others in general. I just always prefer to play the supporting role in other people's stories, I don't really want to be the main character in my own as weird as that might sounds.

Whoa, I totally get that. I enjoy playing support too. It's why I like being a librarian over being a teacher. I didn't like the idea of all eyes on me. 😬

But also, this is why we shouldn't look at numbers. XD I'm following you. I enjoy your feed! Pretend I'm not even here.

@KuJoe Well, I officially have the most followers here than anywhere else. In a week. Compared to a couple of years intentionally building what is meant to be my professional 'gram'.

@clearlykrystle this platform is just so welcoming!

And without an algorithm, it incentivizes people to follow others and make friends. I love it!

@KuJoe It really is. I'm snuggled up and bed and scrolling through before 💤 and it's all very cozy.
@clearlykrystle I really should be heading to bed, already past 3AM here. Probably going to go lay down and scroll for a bit also.
@KuJoe sorry I just followed you and added to your following 🙃
@kels Oh no! To restore order, I must go find one of your posts and boost it for all to see. 😝
@KuJoe 😆 thank you for the boost
@KuJoe Pundits keep saying we must get out of our comfort zone, it is a growth experience. Don't stress yourself about us, we are all feeling our way through this too. As long as we keep the lights on and are kind to each other, this will be grand.
