The planner seems to be supposing that the merge will stop far short of
scanning the entire LHS table, presumably as a result of thinking that
the maximum value of follows.users_id_to is much less than the maximum
value of tips.users_id. Given the actual rowcounts, that's seemingly
not true, which suggests out-of-date stats for one table or the other.
