> I recently signed up first time after like 8 years to follow a handful of interesting accounts

I've done that a few times over the years and have always later ended up deleting my account for the same reason I didn't have one in the first place. Then I realized how silly it is to sign up to follow someone when you can just bookmark their profile and check up on them every now and then—the same way anyone not using RSS would "follow" the Web sites they were interested in ~15 years ago.
