Don't panic, I'm not about to attempt to bore the pants off you by going on about all 100 of them.
Around about my two year anniversary on Steemit, it finally dawned on me that following 200 people was way too many for me to keep a proper eye on everything.
So when I switched from 
to 
I ditched half my follows. First I dropped all the slack arses who hadn't posted for more than two months. And then I ditched the ones that kept resteeming shit. And then a few others whose posts weren't as entertaining. And that got me down to a top 100 follows.
Now, with my 100 limit, when I want to follow someone new, I have to bin someone who is not quite up to speed. But I'm at the point where my entire top 100 is pretty damn good, so finding someone to bin is fairly hard. What I'm trying to say here, is that if I bin you, it may not be because you totally suck - it may just be because you were one too many and I had to find someone to ditch.
"Why would he do such a thing?" you are probably wondering - nobody else is that tight about who they follow. And the short answer is because it works fucking brilliantly - my timeline is awesome. When half of Steemit was bleating about how hardfork 20 sucked and that the quality of posts had gone to the dogs, I was thinking "this is my best ever Steemit feed" So I really like having a limit of 100 follows. But I'm not going to recommend it to anyone because you will all probably say "that guy can go first, he is such an anal prick"
On my amazing and entertaining timeline there are several really awesome Steemians who are doing brilliant posts every day. Like me they have been on Steemit since the dawn of time but unlike me they don't seem to have slacked off and become burned out jaded old farts. They are still totally inspiring and teaching everyone a thing or two.
So here are half a dozen of my favourites. Now don't get pissed off and call me a wanker if you are not on this list. Basically, if I'm following you, you are in my top 100 so I think you are awesome. If I'm not following you it probably is because you suck, but there is always a slim chance that you are OK really and I just couldn't fit you in.
The dirty half dozen list
- like most people on Steemit I originally thought she was a he. Now I don't mean that in the tranny sense - it's because she knows all about Steemit, and cryptos, and all sorts of geek tech website stuff. But unlike a regular geek she can also explain stuff using English, and is interested in other things as well. So is very cool.
I do disagree with her about flagging (I think flagging really sucks and should be binned) and about Bitcoin (I made good profits on Bitcoin but think it's had it's day and is all over, and am now invested in other cryptos), but she is so on to it, that I had to think long and hard before disagreeing with her, because chances are it will be me who ends up being wrong.
- some time ago he posted a series of posts explaining all the major conspiracies that are going on in the world. I still think those are the best summaries of these subjects I have ever seen on the internet, and he really covers everything - essential reading!
