Consider this a request for a follower=’ ’ attribute in the IRC output for the version 4 of the API.
Otherwise, I can either get a list of all my followers and processes them ALL at 3 second intervals. Or spawn a child process or thread - per user - that halts for 3 seconds before making the GET request. . . . All possible means, but I’m sure you can see how redundant this is.
I’m open to any other suggestions if you wish to share?
