Note to potential new followers:
If I suspect you are a bot, scraper, scammer, or other bad-faith actor, I will block you. I expect to see signs of humanity on your profile and timeline.
Also, due to advances in AI and the raised profile of the Fediverse bringing in a better-funded class of attacker, my threshold for "seems human" has gone up significantly.
All of which is to say, if you're a human and I block you after you try to follow me, it's nothing personal.
