Here is my plan to break the Twitter game ๐Ÿ‘‡
@AlexLlullTW It's a vanity metric; I admit it

But it's the way I'm interested, and you may be interested

When I started on Twitter, I knew nothing about it

Since I arrived here 9 months ago

I didn't care about growing my audience

And today I want to help you go from 0 to 1000 followers
@AlexLlullTW LEVEL 1 - Understand why
