Multiple different type associations between two entities - SpringBoot, PostgreSQL

Let's say I have 2 entity classes, User and Post.

If I wanted to allow users to write posts, I would make @OneToMany association, so that one user can be owner of many posts.

If I then wanted to allow users to 'follow' posts, I would make @ManyToMany association, so that many users could follow many posts.

My question: is it a good practice to have these different kind of associations between the same two entities? If not, is there a better approach?

Example bellow

@Entity
public class User{
    @Id
    @GeneratedValue(strategy = GenerationType.IDENTITY)
    private Long id;
    @OneToMany(mappedBy = "user")
    private Set<Post> posts;
    @ManyToMany
    @JoinTable(
            joinColumns = @JoinColumn(name = "user_id"),
            inverseJoinColumns = @JoinColumn(name = "post_id"))
    private Set<Post> followedPosts;
}

@Entity
public class Post{
    @Id
    @GeneratedValue(strategy = GenerationType.IDENTITY)
    private Post id;
    @ManyToOne
    @JoinColumn(name = "id", nullable = false)
    private User user;
    @ManyToMany(mappedBy = "followedPosts")
    private Set<User> users;
}

Yes, you can have many associations between the same 2 tables.

A table can even have multiple associations back to itself, e.g. a Person table can have a father_id column and a mother_id column, both of them foreign keys (one-to-many associations) back to the Person table itself.
