The step by step guide to unfollowing a user on Facebook

Facebook as a social network has been evolving through the years to make it easier for people to connect across the world. Initially, when you added a friend on Facebook, you would start receiving updates about their activity, but it soon turned out that people were only interested in the activity of a few of their friends, and to help users filter these out, they created an option known as the following option. This way, you could add friends to your Facebook account, but start following those who you wish to see more from. The feature works the other way round as well. What we mean is that if there is a user you don’t want to receive updates from, but still want to remain friends on the platform, you can simply unfollow them and that will block out their notifications from your feed. What this means is that, even if they post 10-20 posts on their profile, you will not be notified, and at times, you may not even see most of them appear automatically on your feed.

Unfollowing a user is very easy to do and in this tutorial, we will give you a step-by-step guide to unfollowing a user on Facebook.
