What counts as an inactive Twitter/X account?

An inactive account is one that has not published a new post (tweet) within a specified timeframe. Unfollow Pro for X lets you define inactivity as 30, 60, or 90+ days since the last post. Note that some accounts may still read and engage (likes, bookmarks) without posting — the filter specifically tracks posting activity.

How many of my followed accounts are typically inactive?

Studies suggest 20-40% of Twitter accounts are dormant at any given time. If you follow 1,000 accounts, expect to find 200-400 that have not posted in 90+ days. The exact number depends on your niche — tech and news accounts tend to be more active than personal accounts.

Should I unfollow all inactive accounts?

Not necessarily. Some inactive accounts belong to real people you know, public figures who may return, or archival accounts with valuable pinned content. Use the whitelist to protect accounts you want to keep. Focus on removing obvious bots, abandoned profiles, and accounts irrelevant to your interests.

Can I filter by accounts that never followed me back?

Unfollow Pro for X focuses on activity-based filtering (inactivity, follower count, bio keywords, verified status). While it does not have a specific 'not following back' filter, you can use follower count ranges and other criteria to identify accounts that are unlikely to engage with your content.

Before You Start

Google Chrome browser (desktop)
An X (Twitter) account
Unfollow Pro for X installed from the Chrome Web Store

Install Unfollow Pro for X

Head to the Chrome Web Store and install Unfollow Pro for X. The extension is free to install, requires no account creation, and starts working immediately after installation.

Open the management panel on your profile

Visit your X (Twitter) profile page and click on your "Following" count. When you see the floating PlugMonkey button on the right side of the screen, click it to open the management panel. Your complete following list will load with all available filter controls.

Set the activity filter to find inactive accounts

In the filter controls at the top of the panel, locate the "Activity" or "Last Active" filter dropdown. Select your desired inactivity threshold: 30 days (recently inactive), 60 days (moderately dormant), or 90+ days (long-term inactive). The list updates immediately to show only accounts matching your criteria.

Pro Tip

Start with 90+ days to find the most obviously inactive accounts. These are the safest to unfollow since they have not posted in at least 3 months. You can lower the threshold later for a deeper cleanup.

Sort results by last post date

Once filtered, sort the results by "Last Active" date to see the most dormant accounts first. This puts accounts that have not posted in the longest time at the top of your list. You will likely find accounts inactive for years — abandoned profiles, deleted accounts, and bots that stopped posting.

Review the results and understand what inactive means

Review each account in the filtered list. "Inactive" means the account has not published a new post within your selected timeframe. Some accounts may still be active readers who simply do not post — check their profile if you are unsure. Look for patterns: accounts with default profile pictures, zero recent engagement, or very old last-post dates are almost certainly abandoned.

Pro Tip

Pay attention to accounts with very low follower counts and no profile picture. These are often bots or throwaway accounts that will never become active again.

Whitelist accounts you want to keep

Some inactive accounts may belong to people you know personally or public figures who could return. Click the shield icon next to any account to add them to your Protected List. Whitelisted accounts are permanently excluded from bulk actions, so they will never be removed accidentally — even if they match every filter.

Remove inactive accounts individually or in bulk

For free users, click the "Unfollow" button next to individual accounts to remove them one at a time (up to 10 per week). PRO users can click "Bulk Unfollow" to remove all filtered inactive accounts at once. The extension handles rate limiting automatically to keep your account safe.

Summary

You can now identify and remove inactive accounts from your Twitter/X following list. By filtering for accounts dormant for 30, 60, or 90+ days, you can quickly spot dead weight in your feed. Regular monthly audits using these activity filters will keep your timeline fresh and your engagement metrics meaningful. Remember that an inactive account does not always mean worthless — use the whitelist to protect contacts you want to keep regardless of their posting frequency.
