unwatching
Ceasing to observe
Unwatching is the act of removing something from a list of items you're monitoring, the opposite of watching in digital contexts.
On platforms like GitHub, eBay, or streaming services, you unwatch a repository, auction, or show when you no longer want notifications about it: I'm unwatching this thread—too many emails.
