Yes it's odd.
I sent a DM to a person whose profile I saw at the top of the SW page, but I never got any reply. That person's gone but the profile is still in the profile pane. 😐

You know what’s even more weird … if you start the process to leave Sw, you get a list of all these people who will miss you and are sad to see you go, yet you don’t even know most of them 🤷🏼‍♂ 😅

I don't have that issue but most the ones up there are people I don't communicate with. Seems you might read a post they wrote and they are then added.
(Guess I'll be seeing your photo :) )

First of all, nice to see you again. It is odd to see some people who have been gone for years - even more so for the dearly departed…

I know I miss them too so many are my original friends but at least you're still here....😊

Just saw Wondergirl up there. Haven't heard from her in forever, I wonder if that girl is still around.

I've been going through my "social" lists, clearing out accounts that are no longer active, but it seems every account I click on ends up at the top of my page, even if it hasn't been active in years.

No i miss seeing them.. they were probably there because your account has history interacting with them..

And the new algorithm system promotes content from those you have had previous contact with

I doubt that anyone at SWCentral knows. It's always Happy Hour there!

Bittersweet. They represent lost friendships.

Sadly, some have even passed away.

Yes I also find it very weird and I’m not sure why they are up there.

I don't see them. It's usually just 1 person I interacted with/clicked on their post the last time.

Those profiles should NOT be in that area of our pages
Only active profiles should
The administration doesn't care about that or the feed
Which could be why some people split

No, not if they were good friends of yours.

It’s probably there Alts 😁😅

Yes I do, but I think SW still considers them active users. I was told that there is 4000 active users here. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Yes, there's no point in that.

Perhaps SW is more akin to a black hole than we actually realized
