Doing so basically removed that user from your followers list, prevented them from following you again, and also hid your tweets from them.<\/p>\n<p>In the new method of removing followers, you can remove someone from your followers list without blocking them. Twitter does not notify a user when you remove them from your followers list. However, they may notice they\u2019re not following you anymore, and they can then choose to follow you again. You\u2019ll need to block them if you don\u2019t want them capable of following you, or choose the nuclear option and delete your Twitter account.<\/p>\n<p><strong>RELATED:<\/strong> <strong><em>How to Block Someone on Twitter<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<h2 role=\"heading\" aria-level=\"2\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Remove_Your_Twitter_Followers_on_Desktop\"><\/span><a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" name=\"autotoc_anchor_1\">Remove Your Twitter Followers on Desktop<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>To delete a follower from your Twitter profile on a Windows, Mac, Linux, or Chromebook computer, use the Twitter desktop website.<\/p>\n<p>Start by opening a web browser on your computer and launching the <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/\">Twitter<\/a> site.
