this is bs
I'm popular by just being quiet and agreeable. people approach me on their own, talk to me, end up liking me, other people in the instance see someone likes me, approach me too, the cycle repeat. whenever I get into a friends+ I end up with like 3-4 new friend requests and I'm super introverted and don't squeeze myself into anything

I have different avatars with different color palettes and different faces and switch between them randomly. was never a problem for anyone. people still recognize me by my name and personality

here's the real how to be popular:
#1 pay attention to others
that's it. that's literally it. anything else doesn't matter.
don't be annoying. if you know someone doesn't like something, don't do it around them. if you know someone likes something and it's something you don't mind doing, do it when they're around. you will get really far with just this
