That is great to see your followers increase with each milestone reached and faster. Perserverance certainly pays off! I haven't really thought about the number of followers as much recently as I did when I first started on Hive, but I think it is good to have an audience and more is usually better.
I think that it was 2 years ago when I had the number of followers as #MyHiveGoals and I failed gloriously to reach that one... lol... My main excuse was that it is an unpredictable number (and it is), but if some good work is put behind, it should be positive...
Anyway, I still have some excuses when I compare my followers to, for example, my wife's followers... 😂 She is killing me as she has more and she came later to HIVE, but the audience is completely different... 😃
