How to Unfollow Someone on Quora and Maintain Privacy

Introduction

Quora, a popular question-and-answer platform, has evolved significantly since 2015. To ensure you are using the most up-to-date process for unfollowing someone on Quora, this guide will walk you through the steps to unfollow a user while maintaining your privacy. Whether you are using the browser version or the mobile app, the process remains consistent.

How to Unfollow Someone on Quora

Unfollowing someone on Quora is a straightforward process. Here’s how to do it:

Access Your Profile: Start by logging into your Quora account. Once you are in, click on the profile icon, which typically appears on the upper right corner of the screen. This will take you to your profile page. Navigate to the Following Section: On your profile page, you will see a section labeled “Following.” This section will list all the people you are currently following on Quora. Find the User to Unfollow: Scroll through the list until you find the user you wish to unfollow. You can search for the user by their name or filter by categories if you have a large list of followers. Toggle to Unfollow: Below the user’s profile picture and name, you will see a toggle button that says “Following.” To unfollow this person, simply click the toggle button. This will change the text from “Following” to “Unfollowed.” The user will no longer appear in your list of followed users. There is no need to click an “Unfollow” button. Confirm Unfollow: After clicking the toggle, the user will be removed from your following list. This action will also remove them from any lists or notifications related to your activity on their profile.

Privacy Considerations

Unfollowing someone on Quora does not notify them of your action. No email or notification will be sent to the user you unfollowed. This is a privacy feature designed to protect your personal information and to prevent unwanted communication.

Additional Tips

Unfollowing in the Browser vs. Mobile App: If you are using the browser version, the process remains the same: navigate to your profile, find the user to unfollow, and toggle the following button. If you are using the mobile app, the following steps will be slightly different: 1. Open the Quora app and click your profile icon. 2. Navigate to your list of followed users by tapping on the “Following” tab. 3. Find the user you want to unfollow and tap on their profile picture or name. 4. Slide the following button to “Unfollow.”

Unfollowing from the Browser

Go to Your Profile Page. Click or tap on the “Following” section. Find the user you wish to unfollow and click/tap on their profile picture or name. Slide the toggle button to “Unfollow” or “Following” to switch between following and unfollowing.

Unfollowing from the Mobile App

Open the Quora app and click on your profile icon. Navigate to the “Following” tab for your list of followed users. Find the user you wish to unfollow and tap on their profile picture or name. Tap on the “Following” button and slide it to “Unfollow.”
