Likewise I don't usually ask, let alone follow or upvote, after every time I watch my new subscribers are either bots every time I launch a stream or people I've welcomed to steemit . Very few new follow are already present since a while on the platform, maybe because Dlive is still new and that very few likes to see streams anyway I do not find the number of follow important especially that it is totally distorted with the bots, it is the constant viewers the most important ;)
