unfollower
Someone who disconnects
An unfollower is someone who has stopped following a social media account.
The term implies a previous connection now severed: I noticed I lost three unfollowers this week.
It can suggest rejection or disapproval, since unfollowing is often a deliberate choice to remove someone's content from your feed.
