Conclusion

Following any channel on twitch comes with additional perks that you can enjoy. You can watch their videos regularly and can show your support toward them. But many people unfollow a channel due to some main reasons like if the channel doesn’t produce videos regularly. If the channel is no longer interesting for you or if the channel starts posting something controversial. One of the main reasons that I got to see was the famous “follow-for-follow” situation in which you follow someone who has promised to follow you back, but you come to know he has not followed you since. In all these circumstances, unfollowing a page is the only solution.

Unfollowing not only takes the uninteresting content away, but it also gives more room for other liked channels to come ahead. In this text, I have discussed the possibilities of how you can unfollow someone, whether on mobile or on PCs. Some new twitch users may find this task difficult and may be facing difficulties in this regard. So, this article may help them and enhance their experience with twitch. Keep enjoying the live streams!
