SmokehDaBear(@Smokehbear):If you were wondering why I made this post earlier, here’s why. I checked my under the hood and I am posting my results here. The one flag I got I would take again, that’s what I do for my community. Happy to grow with @blueskykites . The thing that really wrecks an account are the bots that follow you but you don’t follow back. Clean em out. Take them to the trash.

Account maintenance in progress. I’m cleaning house and cutting bot accounts along with inactive follows. Quality over quantity has always been the goal, and it’s time to enforce it. Why it matters: a cleaner following list means better engagement, more authentic reach, and less noise drowning out real conversations. Bots and ghosts don’t build community. Real people do. If you’ve been quiet for a long time or your account looks automated, you may already be gone. Real ones, stick around and say something. Doing the work so the timeline stays worth scrolling. To those real ones you have no worries, I know who you are. 🤙
