If you can tell the article was written by AI, I guarantee you they’re not reading your work or supporting you in any meaningful way. First make sure you’re enjoying yourself, then decide what to do with your energy and spare time.

I’d strongly encourage you to only follow people whose writing you enjoy reading and keep the ratio s as having more followers than followed. The good followers, the ones who engage and who drive earnings, are the ones who’ll follow you because of your writing and your engagement, not because you follow them back. And following more than follow you is a shortcut many people use to determine that a writer isn’t worth reading. Two cents. Ignore as needed :)
