      1/ I'm glad you said this, because I think it's a pretty common behavior (at least for extremely online / remote work twitter). I don't have lists, but I do notice relatively quickly if someone I really appreciate or respect or both unfollows me. https://twitter.com/ExAstrisUmbra/status/1143915716770320385 …

      2/ And, although it's not something I like admitting, I'm left thinking: why? Did I say something fucked up? Did I make light of something terribly dark? There's no feedback there and I wish there was, if only to course correct (if need be).https://twitter.com/devonzuegel/status/1093304038391611392 …

      This is not actually a good idea, but it would be cool if Twitter had a way to do an exit survey to give feedback when you unfollow, mute, or block an account

      3/ But, asking explicitly, "why?" feels very out-of-bounds. If you did offend them, they made a decision that you're challenging, even if you don't mean too. And if it was milder, you're still violating some hard-to-articulate norm.https://twitter.com/TheAnnaGat/status/1093307492698869760 …

      I think this is a GREAT idea. I would both like to give and receive feedback about this! (I recently found out someone blocked me and I have no idea why. But as I hate to receive the "why" email via LinkedIn in a similar situation, I'm not asking.)

      Unfollowing can simply mean a matter of managing one's time & attention. They could like one segment of your content but other content overwhelms. Blocking is a very different signal.

      Yes, very true. Blocking is the strongest signal. Muting is pretty strong too, but not directly observable. Unfollowing is ambiguous.

      Actually, one person I mentioned in this thread (please don't guess or @) *did* unfollow me, and probably muted, too. And, I perceived it as a very strong signal. That's why I do wish there was some anonymized/sanitized way of giving "exit survey" feedback.

          I think it would be a good thing in the case of unfollows. Less so for mutes. I doubt it would be positive for blocks.
