I noticed these accounts are following a lot of ppl on Spotify including me nd it doesn’t seem like I’m the only one from looking on social media. Does anyone have an answer to this? Bots maybe, ppl spam following?

That’s not really what the word “followers” means.
I have set the list of people following me and the ones i follow on private now. This seems to be the only useful thing they could scrape. Why would i care if they can see what music i listen to? It’s not like they can see my personal info and link that or is it?
Wow, thanks. They were following me too, and I had no idea. Blocked.
You just lost your biggest fan… Probably… Not
Same
They’re
a. Fascinated with your content and commentary
b. Bots
Could possibly be OF bots. You reddit users, remember the bots that would follow you every week or so and had to disable following?
Switched what off? I have my settings about as private as I can do, yet one of those accounts had followed me without me knowing. I blocked them now but I’m not sure what setting you’re referring to, in order to prevent some random bot from following you on Spotify?
They would have to follow 44 people a day for 6 years straight to reach 98,000
It does not seem so
If they follow 98,000 people per day, it would take one day
And if my grandmother had wheels she’d be a bicycle
But… I’m not a big fan of bicycles…
Thanks :)

Damn… I never even considered that being a thing but it makes so much sense hearing it.
There are multiple copies of them too it seems because the ones that are following me have slightly different display names
The two (also slightly different names) I see on my Spotify have a “Viral songs on tiktok” playlist in their profile. So it’s probably a way to spread/spam songs around?
I checked after seeing this post. Same for me. They had a slightly different names
Literally noticed this last night on my Spotify
Oh no, not Lucas!
