A Goodreads user asked Julian Worker:

Dear Julian, I don't mean to be rude or disrespectuful but could you, please, unfriend me? I removed you from my friends list but I still see your daily posts. A few years ago I even asked goodreads what can be done but they couldn't help. It was when I would open goodreads and scroll thriough your hundreds of new friends every day. It ruined the point of my using this app. Would you be so kind to help?

Julian Worker Hello Blue, Thank you for the interesting request. I don't mean to sound rude or disrespectful either, but I don't have a friend called 'Blue' in my list of friends. Therefore, I can't unfriend you. I've confirmed this by going to your profile and I see the 'Add Friend' button. Don't worry I can't add you as a friend either, because I'm over the limit for friends. In general, I think some things aren't working in Goodreads in the background and your situation as regards seeing my daily posts when no longer a friend might be another issue that they're unable to resolve. Other examples of items that aren't working correctly include allowing people to go over the limit of 5000 for friends and not updating the weekly / monthly reviewer lists - these have stayed static for over 6 months now.
