follow candidates are people who post good comments or share stuff i've shared, i check the "posts" section of their profile, if they don't post often, or the majority of their recent posts are things that i find uninteresting, i don't follow them. if their comments are good enough it might outweigh a failure to meet the posting requirement.

sometimes i wonder if i should follow sharers rather than posters, but i haven't really looked into that yet

sometimes i follow random people who don't pass my rubric because they are important for other reasons

sometimes i see a post that i find vapid, pointless, stupid, or profoundly boring in my feed and it inspires some unfollowing
