I relied heavily on circle shares and frequent reshares in order to find the people I follow. A huge number of them came by way of the AI Class last year and maybe a third of the HN circle. Nowadays, I circle specific people if (1) they circled me and look interesting, or (2) if I see interesting posts from them reshared a lot. I don't need more in my stream; I miss too much in it as it is.
