While viewing artist credits on Spotify, I noticed that the "Unfollow" button appears prominently next to artists I already follow. This design unintentionally draws attention to “Unfollow” rather than simply showing follow status.

As a result, users who are just checking artist details may click “Unfollow” by mistake, which can reduce engagement and followers for creators. A more neutral or subtle placement (for example, changing it to "Following" in gray or showing it after tapping on the artist) would avoid accidental unfollows.

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Open any song.

  2. Click “Show all” under Credits.

  3. Observe that the Unfollow button appears beside followed artists.

Expected behavior:
The UI should prioritize displaying artist info, not an action that feels negative or out of context. The “Unfollow” option could be secondary or less prominent.
