RE: Finding those accounts who follow immediately after publishing a post
You, as always, explain all the oddities on the Steem blockchain:-)
After my post a week ago, I instantly received more than 50 new followers. I asked Steemcleaners, but they do not deal with video posts. And since these accounts only post videos and do not receive big rewards, it turns out that they can not do anything here. Perhaps this is the birth of a new farm network, but so far they have not yet shown themselves.
Although, you know, they did one small useful thing: subscribing to all who posted in May, they counted all active users for this month. And it turns out that out of a million accounts we have something like 60 thousand active users, together with spammers and plagiarists.
Thanks, @erikaflynn! Actually they seem to miss a few active authors :) From the first graph in my post you can see that there were actually around 90k unique active users in May. But them following "only" around 60k may be due to the fact that this network only started to follow others around mid of May.
Yeah I love to see a query on the number of bots. So that we know the real number of humans being active on Steemit.
