Dear baby ARMY,

A personal thread on how to grow your account on this app

@BTS_twt

When I first joined Twitter as fetus ARMY I had an inanimate object as pfp & a forgettably embarrassing non @BTS_twt related name (coz I wasn’t sure yet)

I mostly talked to myself & the 10 random ARMY who followed me for a few months https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🤣" title="Lachend auf dem Boden rollen" aria-label="Emoji: Lachend auf dem Boden rollen">

I did wish to interact more & was tempted to do the “gain mutuals” thing but I’m generally cautious by nature so I never did & I’m glad

Then I woke up one day & decided to just comment on tweets I agreed with or related to & to my surprise even “big accounts” replied

So mostly, I did my own thing- focused on @BTS_twt (I did my baby ARMY sit down with their entire discography) & continued interacting with ppl whether or not they knew me https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🤣" title="Lachend auf dem Boden rollen" aria-label="Emoji: Lachend auf dem Boden rollen">

For me it was enough.

Then slowly ppl talked back https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="💜" title="Violettes Herz" aria-label="Emoji: Violettes Herz">

In the beginning 1-2 ppl followed a day, now ~ 10 a day (unless Minty @cypherluscious puts me on blast https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🤣" title="Lachend auf dem Boden rollen" aria-label="Emoji: Lachend auf dem Boden rollen"> or some random Tweet takes a life of its own)

And I like it that way coz it feels very organic. My fbs are too (I fb after interactions & when I feel safe)

So, never feel lonely on this app coz you have @BTS_twt

You determine the experience you have here. Seek the interactions you desire, encourage it on your TL too & your account will grow more meaningfully

Apologies if it wasn’t the growth you were thinking of https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🤣" title="Lachend auf dem Boden rollen" aria-label="Emoji: Lachend auf dem Boden rollen">
