A few days ago I posted how hard it is to start from 0 on Twitter. It was a rough start because immediately after I started the account and started posting, I got shadow banned. However, I continued posting and DMing people, and presumably after a manual review, my account got unbanned.

How did I do it?

I searched for people in my field of interest (QA, automation), searched and interacted with their top tweets, and then send a friendly message saying how much I like their content and offering to help if they ever need help scaling their test automation infra.

Long way to go, but I am excited that I am no longer at 0!
