Real followers???

hey guys , it might sound stupid but I guess that there is a hidden system that automaticly mekes you follow someone else but you can't see that in your "following" section. and the person who been followed can see you(as their follower)

I usually follow people who have activities that interest me. For example, I usually follow the people that I challenge frequently or who are usually active within the Q & A section, that way I have learned things from their comments and in any case I can also try to help. I also follow some people for the projects they do, I like them a lot and studying code fragments I can think of solutions for my later projects. As you can see there is no concrete reason, but I like the functionality.

Sololearn offers recommendations for people to follow. It is usually based on people from your own country and even people that someone you already follow is following. It is not strange that with this mechanism you get followers. The strange thing would be the function that you comment, because it does not contribute anything. In fact it would be problematic because you can only follow a certain number of people.

People can follow you without permission. I have 48 followers and I gave permission to none of them, I’m not saying I don’t like it(in fact I’m glad some people are interested in what I do)

Michael /Jan. so what is the point of following or been followed? p.s glad that u have lots of followers , it's just that there is so little use for following where it could be an amazing unique environment if expended

You can get badges for the amount of followers I think which give you XP so you can get to the next level quicker
