Back on Reddit, I followed people who made awesome ingame arts, so I never miss out on their content. I think that would be a good feature for lemmy aswell.
Maybe a safer option would be to simply be able to add specific users’ posts and/or commented posts to your landing page (which could even be implemented in the front end), never collecting or keeping any statistics of how many “followers” people have.

I think it’d be a risky route to take, as it creates the possibility of the general populace electing “lemmy influencers” and ruining it all.

I agree with this. Thatwould be a pretty solution.
