Screenshot of five sticky notes. Note 1: "When I go to decide on a request to follow me I look first at their profile page and if I am following them already, it tells me I already vetted them and boom-done I click Approve. And it’s very interesting if I get such a request a long time after I originally began to follow them." Note 2: "There are specific situations where it is fairly important.
Users that return after a long hiatus and whatnot." Note 3: "When I view a profile of a mutual, I'd like to know they still follow me.
It's nicely reassuring." Note 4: "The insight in the social graph (who follows who) helps me to establish psychological safety. When something bad happens, it plays a crucial role in my decision to engage, mute, block, or report." Note 5: "I don't know why, but it seems like useful information to me to see when someone follows me. It's more reassuring than not knowing. Not having the information anymore feels like information being hidden from me."
