Summary

The article discusses the phenomenon of accounts with no interactions having many followers, suggesting it might be due to European users utilizing privacy options.

Abstract

The author, Chris, shares an observation about accounts on a popular publishing platform having many followers without any interactions. This observation was made in Facebook groups for writers on the same platform. Chris mentions that writers value followers, as they are a significant reason for writing. The author provides two possible explanations for this phenomenon: follow backs or users who have deleted their interactions but kept their accounts. However, Chris's main theory is that these accounts belong to European users who are utilizing privacy options that hide their interactions from users in other countries.

They use The Force

I know… Jedi mind tricks seem a little dated for this medium. They still work.

I am in some groups on Facebook that were created for writers on a popular publishing platform (the one you are using). A question came up about a crazy anomaly, one of our writers noticed.

“How are there accounts without interactions that also have tons of followers?”

Why do we care? Writers want followers more than Trump wants to fire people. It is why we write.

If I had to put money on it though

I would guess that they are Europeans. I have noticed the same thing on other sites. Why is this person talking to himself? How is there a live stream that I can’t see any of the comments on? I looked into the privacy options here to figure this out.

It seems most logical that the ghostly readers, with tons of followers, are using the force of commenting, interaction, and engagement without it being shown to people in other countries. Why? Because we should be able to.

Now… Use the force to get more followers, please. Thanks for reading.
