I did a mass cleaning of my submission notifications, since they were getting pretty crazy, then went through and cleaned out my watch list to thin out future submissions and keep things under control. Don't worry, I still use Search, so no one is completely off my radar. Everyone was unwatched unless I really wanted to see every single thing they put up, plus the accounts that were dead or made private. I ended up going through and unwatching over 250 accounts.

A surprisingly large percentage of those accounts were in the dead/private category. Some of them were dead when I watched them, on the hopes that the artist would come back. Others became dead when the artist switched accounts after their main accounts were made unavailable a while ago when FurAffinity went down. Others left to post on other websites. Others just left, either by vanishing off the face of the Earth, or by deactivating their accounts and/or wiping their galleries (the very reason I download, rather than clicking Favorite). I didn't realize how many there were until I literally clicked on every single account I was watching to check their recent submissions.

Waiting for the next generation.
