Hi, I started noticing in the recommended "Who to Follow" section the title, "Fan favorite on Strava" below a person's name. When did this start and honestly, can I hide this concept? My issue is that it feels like Strava is rewarding the person who follows few people and has a lot of followers. Like someone who follows 30 people but has 3000 followers. Also, some "fan favorites" haven't posted in over a year; so they are "ghosts" who had a lot of followers. Anyway, the whole "Who to Follow" isn't something I care to see but mainly due to this "reward the cool kids" concept. Thanks for reading and any help.
+17I’ve also noticed some recommendations just because the guy is a “local legend near me”. For well over a decade many of us have been pleading for just such a way to hide this feature, or an opt-out switch… to no avail, as we consider this to be a big invasion of privacy. Here's the primary thread on this topic from two years ago: https://communityhub.strava.com/ideas/get-rid-of-suggested-athletes-who-to-follow-banner-5868 Feel free to add your vote to that idea... if you think it will help!
