Wow, you looked at every users profile who you unfollowed! That’s awesome. I’m thinking of doing the same thing. I don’t want to redact any support for anyone but I’d like to recognize everyone on my list. I’d especially like to get rid of the people who never read comment or upvote on my posts and who I added early on because we were the same generation of minnows. I may make a few preemptive posts allowing people to introduce themselves to avoid an unfollow if they notice my post.
Well so far, no one has revenge unfollowed me except the one person I mentioned. Yeah, a lot of the people I unfollowed were people I'd just randomly followed at the beginning for whatever. Many weren't adding much value to feed. It's actually much better now so I don't regret doing it.
