Lightning Following Report

When users follow a record, they see updates on their feed based on the fields the administrators configured for feed tracking, for example, Lead Status. Eventually, the Lead status is moved to ‘Closed-Converted’, but the user is still needlessly following the record. Records like this soon add up to the user’s limit of 500, preventing them following current records that need their attention. Following hundreds of records also leads to too many notification emails, resulting in ‘notification noise’ and failure to notice the ones that matter. The Lightning Following Report tracks all the records you follow in one place and gives the ability to follow/unfollow without scrolling through the chatter feed. It’s used by CRM users to track and manage the records they are following, and by Administrators, to manage records followed by their users. The Lightning Following Report is a Lightning Web Component and installs as a Lightning item on the App Launcher. My domain needs to be enabled to install the app.
