follows are much more personal.
What's different from subscribing (following) someone's sub?
Other people may post in my sub, so subscribing to the sub just means you like the topic. Following me means you like ME!
The Follow feature doesn't do anything more than having all the posts from people you follow located in your follow page.
And you don't choose who those people are at random (probably). You choose by your preference. So the more followers I have the more people like me.
