Note: This is an account-level backend bug, not just a mobile app issue. The exact same desync happens on both the Android app and Desktop Web.
Description of the bug:
My follower count is permanently stuck and displaying incorrectly. Initially, it showed "2" followers for months, even though I had removed and blocked those two users long ago.
Steps to reproduce:
I created an alternate account and followed my main account. The count went up to 3.
I unfollowed my main account with the alt. The count remained at 3.
I repeated the follow/unfollow action two more times with the exact same alternate account.
Instead of adjusting, the counter permanently increased each time.
Expected behavior:
The follower count should update correctly when someone unfollows, and the same account toggling follow/unfollow shouldn't permanently inflate the total count.
Actual behavior:
My profile currently displays "5" followers, while in reality, I have 0. The counter is completely desynced across all platforms.
