Hit a weird milestone of 50 followers on my tiny hobby blog and it meant more than I expected

I started a blog about restoring old hand tools about 6 months ago. It's really niche, just me posting photos of rusty planes and chisels I cleaned up. Last week I hit 50 followers, which felt huge even though it's tiny compared to most blogs. The cool part was that someone actually commented with a tip on removing pitch from a saw blade I'd been struggling with. That alone made the whole thing worth it for me. Has anyone else had a small number like that feel surprisingly big?

Oh man that's awesome! 50 followers might seem small but those are 50 people who actually care about old hand tools lol. I had like 12 people follow my random baking blog once and I was hyped for days.

Actually it's 48 followers not 50, but hey close enough lol.
