As we know the purpose of following someone on social media is to get all upcoming updates and posts from him, this is a basic feature offered by all social media platforms
But on traditional social media platforms you are not free to follow unlimited numbers of users, their are different types of restrictions, some limited you to follow meximum 5K users and friends with different terms and conditions
For example if you have a profile on Facebook, you are not able to ad more then 5K users as your friends, Twitter also have same restrictions, new users can follow meximum 5k people then they have to wait until a certain amount of people follow them
Another thing is if you keep following or sending friend requests to others for few minutes it's considered as a spam or against there terms and conditions, then these traditional social media platforms will restrict you to follow someone or send friend request to someone
The ugly part is if you keep doing something against there terms and conditions they will disabled your account permanently, the power of Hive is a they don't have any terms and conditions to use it
The beauty of Hive blockchain is hive gives you a complete ownership of your account, nobody have ability to disabled your account on hive blockchain, Not even someone restrict you to perform any activity on the platform
You are free to do anything or any activity on hive blockchain based decentralized social media platform, I know it's doesn't make sense to follow every single person on the platform but you can even do that on hive
From last many years I don't even face this problem even once when someone asked me on hive why you are following others, I don't think any hive user have problem with this infect most users feel happy when someone follow them even they don't know him before
The point is a it's considered unusual activity or behavior on other traditional social media platforms if you keep following others for few minutes, but on hive it's a normal thing, nobody have any issue with that, this Shows how decentralized social media are solving the problem and issues of traditional social media users, which are created by owners of traditional social media platforms to control every activity of users in order to show them their power and hold
