I agree with your hump. The blockchain has gotten a lot more interesting for you since Hive was born.
There are a few people on my follow list who were regular posters but are now just lurking and upvoting, but havent posted in ages.
Did you follow people in the past and prune them from your follow list? I was going to do that but it will be interesting to see when and if some of the old timers come back to Hive.
I didn't post much for a couple of months but have been more or less active since the early days.
There was a disaster with my following. I was looking at someone's profile and clicked to see who they had blacklisted. This was way back when those options first appeared and my whole list of people I followed got wiped. No one could explain it but I had to start following people from scratch. I was quite miffed because as you say, I like to catch old people when they turn up again
