1000 followers! Yay! Or not?

I have 1031 followers, the interface says. A truly joyous number, that deserves upvotes from you all, as per tradition. Best do that first, before you read on, as I run the risk of losing followers by writing this next bit.

Of these 1031 followers, 107 haven't posted or voted in over a month (you can look up your own numbers here).

This leaves 924 followers. On a very good day, a posting by me gets 90 upvotes, and a little less views. It looks like, but I'm not sure, that these viewers and upvoters are often the same people. To these people I say: Thank you for following me!

I do wonder, however, why those other 90% are following me, if they don't look at or vote for my content. I don't expect a vote from all my followers on every posting I make, far from it, but these percentages are ridiculous.

If they don't care about my content, fair enough, but why are they following me then?

This isn't a post-HF thing either, I have seen similar percentages before that too.

Maybe I can persuade Hive account@mynameisbrian, who made the dead-follower tool, to include an option to see a list of all followers who haven't voted for any of my content in over a month.

Maybe I shouldn't think about these things too much, but I am curious by nature, I suppose, so:

• What are your stats like?
• Any ideas on what, if anything, is going on here? Am I not handsome enough?
