so basically they said that theyre gonna unfollow everyone because they wanna get on the front page of neocities. so this has caused people to have second thoughts about their project bcuz it makes them seem like they dont actually care about making community, just numbers and being 'famous'
In general, it seems like the structure of a lot of social media encourages narcissistic and attention seeking behaviors (in the clinical sense, not as an insult). For example, the idea of "Followers" and "Likes" often degrades into a "popularity contest". But your self-worth is not in a number, and it is impossible to compare two people when everyone is unique.
@batzmario I don't believe federie is even blocking people, just unfollowing them which isn't a block. Hell I occasionally clear out my follower list if they dont follow me and if im not interested in the site anymore (ie, it is entirely dead)
