Yes. The photo above is sorted defending by created at. There are 9 after the initial deletion.
People who follow you haven’t been dropped. It’s just relay selection causing data gaps.
Your latest contact list, that I have, was from 21/12/2022. It was only posted to Damus’ relay - so it likely never replicated well (unless you have a newer one since)
Here is that latest contact list I have for you. Again, I can’t see any deletion events (kind 5).. so it just wasn’t broadcast well.
