Command: Clean

Clean 🧹

Clean will allow you to remove followers from your account, it is useful to remove bots, fake followers and abandoned accounts by trigging a "force unfollow"; which is done by blocking and unblocking an account which causes them to unfollow you.

It determines who to "force unfollow" by evaluating each one of your followers and scoring them; if they exceed the score limit then they are "force unfollowed".

The rules for scoring and how to change them are detailed on the Scoring Rules page.

Important: Clean and people who you follow already

People who you already follow will not be "forced unfollowed" regardless of the score.
