I generally won't accept follow requests from:
* completely new accounts that haven't posted yet
* accounts that predominantly post about tech, software development
* accounts that are predominantly negative either in general or specifically about things I post about a lot
* accounts that post a lot of sexual stuff
obviously this is in addition to not accepting follow requests from nazis, bigots, etc

on follow requests 📌
* re: "new accounts that haven't posted yet," it's mostly about getting a good read on who you are, without any info to go on, the decision is not going to be yes.
* if you've moved instances, a note somewhere what your old username was makes this so much easier, y'all.
