See title. Just made an account today to promote my youtube crap myself instead of just features on blizz fansites, and before i even got to that part i already had like 4 people following me. How the hell did they even find me? I thought i had to tweet something first? Last edited by russ80 on Sat, 28th Jun 2014 17:13; edited 1 time in total

I've no idea, but maybe Tom moved from myspace to twitter and brought 3 friends.

if u don't want to be followed by random people who find u thru other profiles (things u like) u have to set ur profile on private. too bad u can't communicate/tweet then like it's used to be. alot of these followers are bots too i think. so annoying. i don't post on twitter but got an account so it was no problem for me to set it on private... but if u want to be seen and talk to other people then there is no option i think.

Well actually they don't seem like bots. I'm basically making blizzard related content on my yt channel and followed all blizzard related stuff on twitter, and the ones who did follow are some streamers/youtubers. So yeah i'm completely confused. O well.

it's all about the wanktags people follow tags they find important, and people follow other people they find interesting you tie a wanktag that is important to someone who other people find interesting, they might rewank it and you get traffic

Oh, just found out yesterday about the derptags. Yeah thanks for clarifying. It was from having the #myfirsttweet + #D3ROS etc. Main PC : I7 12700, MSI Ventus RTX 4090 24gb, Alienware AW3423DW QD-OLED Laptop : I5 4200H @ 3400mhz boost, GTX 850m 2gb Vram DDR3, 4gb RAM DDR3 Derpsole : Playstation 5 disc edition, Ninty Switcherino TV+audio: LG CX 65" / Sonos ARC + SL ones + Sonos sub 3 VR Headset: Meta quest 2 airlinked

and due to some nasty 2 year old bug you will not be able to approve the follower acces requests Rolling Eyes

twitter what an overrated piece of shit social media. not protecting your tweets results in google and other search engines indexing your whole time line

someone already figured out why this piece of shit company did an IPO? how the fuck are they generating revenue? besides mass surveillance subsidized by governments I am unable to identify any form of revenues
