  3. Click on the blue Block Followers icon at the top right of Google Chome to launch the addon
  4. Scroll to the bottom of the list, choose ‘select all’ and then ‘block’
  5. It may take awhile for it to go through your whole list – but it will be quicker than manually doing it.

  8. Scroll to the bottom of the page until no more blocked users are displayed
  9. Press F12 on your keyboard to open the browser debug console
  10. Open the ‘Console’ tab
  11. Paste the following script in
  12. function sleep(ms) {
return new Promise(resolve => setTimeout(resolve, ms));
}
function clickAll(buttons) {
for (i = 0; i < buttons.length; i++) {
buttons[i].click();
}
}
async function unblock(timeoutMs, maxScrolls) {
var prevScrollY;
var scrollY = window.scrollY;
var numScrolls = 0;
do {
window.scrollTo(0,document.body.scrollHeight);
numScrolls++;
prevScrollY = scrollY;
await sleep(timeoutMs);
scrollY = window.scrollY;
} while((scrollY - prevScrollY) > 0 && (typeof maxScrolls === 'undefined' || numScrolls < maxScrolls));

var unblockButtons = document.getElementsByClassName("blocked-text")
var actuallyBlock = confirm("Do you want to unblock all " + unblockButtons.length + " accounts?");
if (actuallyBlock) {
clickAll(unblockButtons);
}
}
unblock(500);
  13. Press enter on your keyboard to run the script
  15. A message will appear confirming the number to unblock – click “OK” to confirm
  16. The script will take a few seconds to run
  17. Refresh the page to confirm all users were unblocked.
  18. Check your followers list – it should now be empty.
