Have you also witnessed a major drop in your Twitter followers numbers? Well, you are not alone, as several lost their numbers of followers overnight, including new Twitter CEO Parag Agrawal.

On Thursday night, several users in India complained about their sudden drop in followers. Some lost around 50 followers to some witnessed drop of followers of about 100k. Earlier, CEO Parag Agrawal had 360.3k followers and now he is left with 43.7k followers.

Why did the followers drop on Twitter?

For those who don’t know, this is a cleanup exercise that takes place on Twitter in a few months. In this, Twitter removes the bot accounts and thus people have witnessed a major drop in their follower’s list.

Earlier, in June, a similar thing took place and at that time, Twitter released a statement, in which they said that people may notice some follower count fluctuation from time to time. Accounts that they’ve asked to confirm their password or phone number aren’t included in follower counts until they’ve co0nfirmed that information. They do it regularly to help prevent spam and keep all accounts secure.

At that time, several Bollywood celebrities lost their Twitter followers including Anupam Kher. In June, he lost around 80,000 followers. He tweeted with displeasure and wrote that Dear Twitter, I’ve lost more than 80,000 Twitter followers, is this a glitch or something is happening.

As soon as people noticed a drop in their followers, they started bombarding social media with hilarious memes.

A renowned tipster, Evan Blass, has provided enthusiasts with an early look at the design and colour choices of the Samsung Galaxy M35, ahead of its highly anticipated debut in the Indian market. The smartphone is set to arrive in three distinct colour variations – grey, light blue, and dark blue, which show striking similarities with the Galaxy A35, suggesting a possible rebranding strategy by Samsung.

The leaked image showcases the Galaxy M35 with a vertically aligned triple rear camera setup, positioned at the top left corner alongside an LED flash integrated into what appears to be a plastic back. The Galaxy M35 introduces a sleeker and more modern look with a hole punch selfie camera cutout, departing from the water drop style notch seen on its predecessor.

Meanwhile, the Galaxy M35 is expected to boast a substantial 6000mAh battery capacity, surpassing its counterpart, the Galaxy A35, which contains 5000mAh. This enhancement in battery power indicates Samsung’s commitment to delivering extended usage durations for its consumers. 

Moreover, specific specifications are yet to be confirmed by Samsung, but reports suggest that the Galaxy M35 could feature a 6.6-inch display and run on an Exynos 1380 chipset paired with 6 GB of RAM, ensuring seamless performance for users across various tasks and applications. 

Despite bearing a resemblance to the Galaxy A35, the leaked image also highlights subtle differences between the two models, notably in the design of the volume and power buttons, as well as the location of the SIM tray. Such nuances indicate the potential distinction in user experience and functionality between the two devices.

As excitement grows for the upcoming release of the Samsung Galaxy M35, fans and tech enthusiasts are eagerly waiting for more information from the company about the phone’s specifications, price, and when it will be available.
