Agreed. I was at about 800 following and decided to trim down to 25-30 people. Unfollowing takes so long on Twitter I had to use 3rd party apps to speed up the process.
- macromaniac 12y agoI had made a twitter account a long while ago but didn't really use it. A month or two ago I decided I wanted to start using it again but I had somehow started following 2000 people. I couldn't find a 3rd party app for unfollowing that didn't have me sign up for something so I used document.getElementByClassName(unfollowButtonString) to click all the unfollow buttons at once. Regardless of that hassle, finding and using inactive accounts is probably pretty easy for the people selling these follows. I imagine they just try passwords leaked from other services or applications or hire people to make fake accounts.
- reledi 12y agoWhich apps did you use? I have a difficult time unfollowing people. I try to purge my following list often, but I never make much progress.
- withdavidli 12y agoSome that I used: justunfollow, unfollowers, and iunfollow(not sure if I used this one, looks familiar). Each cap their fast unfollow feature to about 25 a day. So it took me about a week to get it down using all the services.
