Are we really still having this issue?
When someone follows you, that doesn't mean you jump into their DM's and try to sell your book, or marketing package, or editing services, etc.
This gets an instant block.
How is this even still a thing that people don't understand?

Fun fact: If someone quotes a post of yours in a way that is unwelcome (as is commonplace on Twitter/X) there is a tool to combat the unwanted attention. Simply click the three dot menu on the quote post & click "Detach quote". This removes your post from their quote post. Useful to know, do share!
