I totally agree with you. If a person follows me, then I'll definitely follow them back, but nowadays, I found out a lot of people who once participated in F4F movement have thousands of followers already, but they might only follow 200 more or less people..
I'm also on my way to 100, esp. being a full-time writer on Medium, I would appreciate some financial support through writing.
Check out my articles about life, lessons I learned, and the philosophy about writing. If you like any of them or you'd like it read them in the future, please follow me and I'll return the 💞ASAP
And thanks for your wish for a successful 2023. Since I quit January, I've been reading, writing, and reading, and dealing with job scams 😓
