Excellent approach. These are vanities. Followers do not make different on Medium as I posted a story about it. What matters is meaningful connections and creating regular readers. Frankly, when I had 1000 followers and 6000 followers did not make much difference. The more regular readers, the better outcomes our accounts can create. https://medium.com/illumination/followers-dont-mean-anything-on-medium-anymore-f609fc9333a4 Keep up great work. Congratulations on reaching day 25!
