It tends to happen when I switch between different clients.

What's the last client you tried to follow someone from before the loss event?
I have no idea 🤷🏼
I know it's been at least a week because thats how far back hist.nostr.land goes.
I'll check noswot.org's db when I get a chance. It was offline recently but was running since October before then.
Hmm, this isn't the usual lost contact list type bug then? nostrudel is showing you're following lots of people. That or you've recovered it.
When I noticed people missing I still had around 300, so no, it wasn't a total wipe. Since then I've added anyone that was following me so I've got a pretty large list again.
