Pursuing trivial connections.
Every day, accounts receive about 10 private messages, roughly meaning:
Teacher, I followed you, remember to follow back.
I’m sorry, but I came to Twitter to gather information, and gathering information is to improve skills, and the ultimate goal is to make money, or to socialize with attractive girls.
I follow you, not because you followed me.
Just as I don’t love you because you love me.
I produce content to gain more content.
What’s valuable is not the number of followers, but the value they bring.
Increasing followers is just a byproduct of effectively outputting valuable content.
