Some clients don't even work properly, unless you follow someone, so they nudge you to follow people.
But what if I have a new account or just don't wanna do the whole follow thing or am extremely selective, in my follows?
Well, then I'm sorry outta luck. Either see nothing, nearly-nothing, or a bunch of garbage.
Unless, I can duplicate a curated list and/or get on a curated relay. So, do that.
