[OFF-TOPIC] Why are more followers important???

Question

plz and. if you have more than 50 followers...

Answer 1

They aren't.
Sometimes great coders are not even recognized.

Answer 2

I totally agree with @Learnsolo!!!

Answer 3

I have quite a great number of followers, but I don't have the feeling to be followed by more than a dozen of people in reality (if I'm optimist: concretely, I think few people maybe appreciate my contributions when they cross them, but are not waiting for me)... Unfortunaly, most of followers do that just to be followed back, and/or without great attention to who they're following, much more attracted by the social activity (including the sololearn challenges battles) than by a coding/sharing knowledge one ^^

Numberous followers is just a sign of regularly active members, but not at all of their skill or interest, not more than XPs count :P
