Do you track your unfollowers?

[lawrawrrr]

On social media, do you ever track your unfollowers?

I used to really religiously but now I just notice when people don't follow cos I click on their account or notice their posts aren't in my feed any more!! Cba with people unfollowing really, I don't base my life around my follower count (any more!!!)

I'd just love to know why some people unfollow!!

I used to on tumblr, a couple of years ago. I'd go through the list maybe once a month and clear out the deadwood who unfollowed me. I used to follow everybody back, so eventually I was following so many people that tumblr was just not worth looking at anymore, because my feed had become a mess of stuff I didn't care for. I stopped following people back, but I still haven't wiped the rest. Used to do the same on instagram and twitter. I'd just follow everybody on twitter, and didn't really care if anybody unfollowed me, because they have a list feature. I put everyone I cared to hear from on the list, and only looked at the list, never my feed. Instagram was a similar case to tumblr. I'd be all about follow for follow, but it just rendered it useless, because my feed would be an amalgamation of crap. I got to 1k followers, but I decided I wanted to reclaim my feed and unfollowed everyone. These days I only follow people I care for, so if somebody unfollows me I don't really mind.

Didn't even know this was a thing I thought it was just a scam for facebook followers or something

If they dont want to follow me then fuck them

Well, probably in the beginning that old story applies to almost all users, right!? I'd look at the follower "score" and if it's saying that I've lost -1 random user from India I'd be like WHY???

The will to leave the anonymity and negotiating frantically with other random users until realizing that, in short, having thousands of followers does not mean very much for us, unless they are conquered in a honest, gradual and spontaneous way, from the moment in which you stop being a content creator robot to become a human who do what you do simply for the intuitive pleasure of posting something

I'd have no reason to track them, if they wanna unfollow then its whatever. I think it would make me seem like i really need them to a point to track them

[Manji]

as if I would die if they unfollow me.. HAHAHA

[despect]

I did used to on twitter but honestly I stopped caring :P

the only thing I find is really is seeing which one of my "friends" no longer wants anything to do with me but doesn't have the balls to say "I don't want to be friends any more" or have any kind of convo.

I had a couple people unfollow me a few years ago because I seemed "too sad" in my tweets (they told me after), finding that out instead of coming to me and asking if I'm ok was just awful! So called friends as well :(

Oh wow, that sounds so bad when they didn't even come to ask you if you were ok or not ;(

I've had somewhat similar experiences that people stop talking to me because they get bored or when i talk about sad things they just straight up leave me on read and never send a message back.

bored or arguments is hard but at least you kinda realise... when you do the whole message and ignore thing it's literally the shittiest feeling. Got 2 of those at the moment [emoji23][emoji23][emoji23] can u not

Not really, I seem to have a sixth sense to who's deleted me off Facebook though! It's weird I can just tell, it makes you wonder why especially when you haven't done anything wrong to them lmao.

[-:Undertaker:-]

there's certain people on facebook back from school who i had an inkling would delete me and they sure enough did. mainly because they spammed fb with political stuff and now and again i would share stuff back saying the opposite to rile them up cos i know what they're like and sure enough i got removed. but that's good though because i know i've pissed them off enough to go and delete me :P

i lost like 4 or 5 from the eu referendum and like 2 from the general election and i expected them ALL how weirds that. there's one girl (vegan, you know the type) who i'm on borrowed time with i think for sure.

i've only ever removed 1 person and that's a former friend who removed me from all other social media and did same with other friends so i thought fuck you and did it back on facebook too. i tried to keep friendship alive but you can only do so much!! i still get sad actually and feel mean i removed him even though he did with me but i'm really loyal like that and always like to think relationships with people can be salvaged. i'm a pussycat underneath really, up until the point those attempts at like peace are thrown back in face then i think well f u.

I do on Instagram, I like to keep my 'Following' to just 100 so if there is someone I want to follow I'll go through and unfollow people who don't follow me or I don't care for.
