It was truly sad to see some of the names flash by. But at the same time, I'm grateful of the new friends I've made as well.
yes POSTING_WIF is the posting key, that's the minimal auth needed to follow/unfollow, but it also gets the account by the key, so it knows what account to look at.

I very much understand that, and I'm equally grateful for the new and not-so-new friends that I know now.
OK, perfect. I'll give this a go. The posting key isn't transmitted in clear text, is it? I figure no, but I just wanted to clarify. 😁 🙏 💚 ✨ 🤙
No, it actually derives the public key and get's the account information from that. and then for the unfollowing part it uses it to sign the transactions before sending, it never leaves the ENV.
Ah, OK, I see. I appreciate the explanation, brother, thank you. 😁 🙏 💚 ✨ 🤙
