Why can't I unfollow threads in the forum?
Clearly, this is a bug. And it seems to have been out there for a long time, so why isn't it fixed yet? I'm seeing posts as old as a few years back about it.
To follow a thread, you simply click the "Follow" box in the upper right-hand corner of the screen, which changes it to "✔ Following".
It doesn't matter how many times I click the box, which then changes it back to "Follow", but it doesn't work. Once you refresh the page, it shows "✔ Following" again. I don't want a workaround to turn off email notifications for replies, because obviously if I start following any other threads, I do want to be notified…
I have also gone into the My Subscriptions page of my profile, but don't seem to be able to do anything from there.
HELP!!!
========================================
Here's one reply on this topic from a year ago from a high level user confirming it, but unfortunately not providing any solutions other than to turn off email notifications for replies.

Answer:
... As you found out you apparently cannot unfollow a thread, it changes back immediately.
