I noticed these accounts are following a lot of ppl on Spotify including me nd it doesn’t seem like I’m the only one from looking on social media. Does anyone have an answer to this? Bots maybe, ppl spam following?

Not a lot. Yes you can see what they are playing and they use it to make recommendations for you.
I think the primary motivator for Spotify is just data scraping. Everybody wants to know your circle of friends in order to advertise better towards you.
I don’t know if it’s still a feature but I used to get phone notifications every time a friend put a song on.
I don’t recommend this.
But I remember we did it. "Okay, Brian, the record's five. The record's five… Okay ready? Go!"
