1. Fail to follow anyone who doesn't follow back
Instagram does not show the contacts you follow and who do not follow your profile back, but you can discover this list using the PC Combin application, available for Windows, macOS and Linux. Through the tool, it is possible to stop following all these accounts at once, saving time and eliminating the need to give unfollow in several people individually. Here's how to do it:
Step 1. Download the PC Combin and enter your Instagram login and password;

2. Stop following profiles with whom you interact little
When accessing the list of people you follow on Instagram, the social network allows you to categorize these people, showing the level of friendship that exists between the accounts. One of the options shows the profiles with which you least interacted in the last 90 days, considering that you did not like publications or reacted to Stories from those accounts. On the screen itself, you can stop following these contacts. Check it out below:
Step 1. Access your profile and tap on the list of people you are following;
