    1000 followers threshold

    A thousand followers is what you'd call a "psychologically significant" number in any social media, I'd say. CivitAI is the first place where I've crossed it, none of my other haunts get more than a hundred+. Although, admittedly, I don't put much effort in promoting myself.

    I just do same thing - I post pictures when they come on my mind and come out of the Forge. And in a year or so it got me to this pretty number. I feel like I should be happy, but it's hard, mostly because I didn't really do anything.

    And I don't mean this in a self-deprecating way - I literally went on vacation, and number just kept going up. I brings to mind my previous follower milestone, where a whole stack of users with the same name subscribed and they all had just blank pages in uploads.

    So, I probably don't actually have a 1000 followers. However. One thousand is still large enough number, even if half of them are bots, it means that there are still hundreds of real people out there who enjoyed my works enough to include them in their Followed feed, which is heartwarming, and I'm thankful for it.

    I want to try and break the ice somewhat - most of my experience on CivitAI was just liking and occasional mutual follow. (I used to mutual follow almost everyone at first, but as the list grew, I had to keep in mind my feed from getting too bloated, sorry, guys.) But commenting was always rare.

    So I'll just ask you - I don't really adhere to any particular theme in my posting, aside from avoiding posting actual porn with genitals touching - so everyone here might have seen something different that led him to follow. What did you find interesting?
