iMore Question

On instgram it says all the accounts are being restarted because of frod and fake accounts so I want to know if this is true.

I hope they don't boot my Wife's account. She doesn't use it for much of anything. Just to see pics of her Grandkids.

Just goes to show that people care more about quantity than quality.

Cheater! I don't even have Instagram. But I have about 7,200 followers on Twitter. And I earned them. I'm sure there's some that are now inactive.

It's my political account. I have 5 Twitter accounts. My Bama football account only has 386 followers. Allen West follows me on my political account. I've slacked off Twitter a lot.

I have about 100 followers and follow about 100 people on both Instagram and Twitter. I can't keep up with it all if it gets over about 100.

Yeah I agree! especially on Twitter. I don't even see everything that's posted when I was following more than like 50-60 people/sources.

I use lists. That keeps it down to my main 100 or so.

About 97% of all Twitter accounts don't have more than 200 followers.

Isn't it funny how Apple has an App Store Twitter but not an Apple Twitter?
