Small gripe. But this is a beta, so it's worth mentioning for future developmental areas...

I've noticed that I get a trickling of new followers daily. Not many, but a few. The problem is that there's no good way to sort them (like by the date they started following me or ONLY by those that I'm already following or by interests or...so on and so forth). There's simply nothing there to help sort the profiles. Nada. Zip. Zero. Zilch.

I can't even imagine what it must be like for people who've got twice, three times, or even four times the amount of followers that I do. Maybe they just don't even bother scrolling through to see who the new folks are. Maybe they just follow everyone indiscriminately. Who knows?

But it sucks. I'd love to find out who my new followers are since most don't leave comments that they're now following; the ones that do leave comments are simply spamming everyone with the same bullshit rather than helping tell me that I'm creating content that they genuinely enjoy reading. THOSE are the people I want to follow back. The creators of interesting content themselves are also ones I want to follow back.

But who's got the time to click on every follower's profile to figure out if they're personally worth following back? I sure as shit don't have that kind of time. And I can't, realistically, do it multiple times a week, much less multiple times a month. That's a huge time suck that's not worth doing.

So, perhaps in future iterations of the site, that small change could be implemented? It would go a LONG way in helping people weed out the crap profiles and focus on curating the content worth curating, which is kinda the whole point of the site, right?

Just a thought.
