- After you remove someone as an assignee, they will still be following the task. You can remove yourself as a task follower, but cannot remove anyone else, so users will have to remove themselves. To stop following the task, click on a task to maximize it, then click on the ellipses (three dots) in the top panel. Then, select "Unfollow." You can learn more about following and unfollowing tasks here.
