Why purge my list?
First, it reduces the load on the server I'm on — no need to keep pulling from accounts that are inactive, no longer exist, or have moved.
Second, if I ever move to a different platform or instance, it makes importing my list much easier.
Third, I don’t really care about follower counts, but even so, I don’t like the idea of inflated numbers.
