You can unfollow those you decided to follow, but you cannot delete followers. You can block them.

You mean they still remain on our list ?

@kiran8 Yes, they stay in our list, there is nothing we can do about this.

At the moment, the only way is labour-intensive and trying, to say the least. You have to go to each person's profile, block them, refresh and then unblock them (in case they do return and prove good followers). As you see, @MyLotBugs has taken @Yukimon's suggestion of making the list searchable, which would certainly make things a lot easier, and has made a memo for a future update.

@PhredWreck Possibly not. Some things you do and some you don't. I just hit F5 to be on the safe side.

That is great !As of now it is exhausting especially when you have more than 500 followers it is time consuming...

I would just leave them there as some may return as word gets around that Mylot is back - the only ones I'd remove, by blocking, would be spammers or abusive users

It looks like you got some great advice from PhredWreck. I have a lot of people following me that have never interacted with me at all.

Yes it was ...there is no pint in having too many followers esp the ones not interacting or posting

@kiran8 I agree with you. I don't see the point and why people want to follow you but never interact.

At least you can still go to their profiles and stop them from following you. My problem is to delete those messages. I do not seem to find a good way of deleting them. Some of these messages were from ages ago. i do not need them, and I do not want to read them.

go to each following and block the followers that you do not want following you.

@kiran8,Sorry,I don't know.In fact,I never delete anybody from following me.Why should I waste my precious time doing this thankless job.If they are inactive,let them be.They might have reasons for inaction.Or may be they lack time.I would like to use my time in as productive a way as I can.
