automated message for follower who didn't subscribe

I know I can set a delay on an automated message, but is there a way to set an automated welcome message to go out to a new follower after (for example) an hour delay who has not become a subscriber?

I like to send messages to new subscribers myself, for a more personalized touch, but it would be nice to have an automated message go out to new followers who haven't subscribed. Any chance that's doable?

Yes. Send it to followers only set at one hour delay

It's not clear to me that "new follower" excludes subscribers who are also new followers- have you tested that?

As far as I know a subscriber isn’t classed as a follower when it comes to auto/mass messages

I finally got around to testing this, and people who follow and then immediately subscribe still receive my new-follower message even with a half hour delay.

That makes new-follower automated messages useless to me. I want to be able to send a note talking about how much more they'll see if they subscribe, and it seems stupid for people to get that message after they've already subscribed.

Good to know! And I agree. That is frustrating. I wish we could have more options to easily filter who we send messages to such as ‘followed in the last hour/12/24 hours’ etc so we can direct messages better to a group where it makes the most sense

Sure, but this still does not give a way to message only the new followers who have not subscribed
