So I did this, and it cleaned up my feed really nice. However, I’m down to under half my follower count, and a bunch of accounts I follow no longer have avatars. Anything you recommend to do about this?

Follower count isn’t meaningful as long as you’re still broadcasting to the relays you were before you’ll have the same reach.
As for profile metadata, does it load when you click on the profile? I’d say 90-95% are loading for me, well outside my paid relay reach.
We don’t have perfect coverage of all profile metadata because many people have not updated their profiles in a long time and so it hasn’t been saved to our aggregator.
Going to have to play around with this a bit more to see what works best. Might have to add one or two public relays back for trial and error.
I’m surprised you have that many not loading after clicking profiles. Perhaps your network is a lot wider than mine and they aren’t on the main relays?
Example, here’s one that doesn’t load for me at all with my current relay set: #[5]
Hmmm loaded for me instantly….
Is your filter connected correctly and online? What client are you using?
Looks good. I’m using this and it’s green in Damus:
wss://filter.nostr.wine/npub1aeh2zw4elewy5682lxc6xnlqzjnxksq303gwu2npfaxd49vmde6qcq4nwx?broadcast=true
Hmmmm very weird. I’ll try loading this using only the filter.
I just loaded this profile from Katie’s account using ONLY the filter relay. Something is wrong with your connection. Try deleting it and re-adding.
