There's no obsession with followers.
It's just metrics who can be useful for other creators who want to jump on substack.
Of course, i do care about them.
Or i wouldn't publish a daily post for free since a year +
That's ok. I'm just puzzling over this phenomenon of followers and especially very large numbers of followers. Why are 5000 thousand people following you? Is it for entertainment, information, advice or learning? Have you analysed or profiled in any way who your followers are?
I just like to sit down in the morning and write something.
I think I would have been much more successful if I had focused on a niche.
People like to compartmentalize their feeds.
Knowing exactly what they're going to read.
I try to do just the opposite: write things they won't read anywhere else.
As I analyze my data, I have topics that stand out (tips on journaling, tips on breaking mental barriers, my own little stories ...) but I try not to look too hard at the analytics.

I don't want to be a slave to topics.
Have a great day.
