Could you elaborate how this works? I imagine you&#x27;re comparing your followers and then scanning for each, prev followers list and new one, so notifying when a diff detected.<p>How do you think a good digest could be made so a twitter user with a long list of followers can receive notifications not bothering too much?

Cool! I created something similar for Twitch (and upcoming support for more platforms) @ <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.unfollow.io" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.unfollow.io</a>.<p>I don&#x27;t have a monetization model yet, but yours looks really fair.

Author here. I build this to learn and ship something with Elixir. I know it&#x27;s not a new idea, there are plenty of alternatives to track unfollowers, but couldn&#x27;t find any that works inside twitter. I got the idea recently reading some political tweets about a situation in my region (Catalonia, Spain). I usually follow tech people and this days they&#x27;re tweeting political stuff and I wondered how many people unfollow them after those tweets.<p>I&#x27;d appreciate any feedback :)

Nice! I&#x27;ve been using it and it works perfectly.
