I genuinely want people in this situation who follow me to do this. I'm excited to meet ya and see what you're about!
But also you definitely should fill in your profile and start sharing other people's posts while you're in the queue! It's a good way to let people get an idea of who you are, so they might follow you! Especially if you use your profile to link to places where you have your own content!
You could even get a friend to write you up an intro post where they convince people you'll be worth a follow and share that!
