Unfollow

English to Portuguese Other Media / Multimedia Social Networks
Unfollow a user.

Client needs me to translate it to Portuguese other than "deixar de seguir". Any suggestions?

Hi, Elda. What was your final choice? I'm curious.
Elda Veiga (asker) Dec 13, 2013:
A short word I forgot to add, but this is for an app and client needs the word to be short. All suggestions so far have been great, but unfortunately not what I need. Thank you anyway for your willingness to help!

"Unfollow" é um termo educado para se dizer excluir ou cancelar.

No Facebook o termo usado é "unfriend".

I can't unfollow someone:
Log in to Twitter on the web and visit your following list.
Hover over the Following button next to the user you don't want to follow anymore. It will turn red and say Unfollow. Click Unfollow and the user will be removed from your following list.
If it doesn't turn red or click, refresh the page and try again, or click the user's name to visit their profile page and unfollow them there.

Esconder/cancelar

We need further context explaining what exactly happens when the user unfollows someone. It occurred to me, since none of the answer seem to fit, that, if the person remains as a friend, but the user just won't see their updates anymore, "esconder" or "cancelar" can work, if it needs to be a command. But that is, of course, if they remain friends.
