Follow Button not working properly

[pranitdugad]

If the user once clicks on the follow button it showing the "following" and after the user clicks on stop following it still shows the "following" after refreshing the page which is not proper. (as shown in the video)

I can confirm that this is indeed an issue. I think it is caused by that the mu-plugin ​class-o2-follow.php handling subscribing for Jetpack_Subscriptions but not including any function for unsubscribing. Hence the fix would be to add a function for that.

The Jetpack Subscriptions module and its Jetpack_Subscriptions class do not currently provide a method for users to unsubscribe. As a solution, I propose disabling the "Follow" button once a user follows and displaying a message such as:

To manage your subscriptions, please visit the link in your email or go to ​Subscription management.

If an alternative method to handle subscriptions without relying on Jetpack_Subscriptions would be available, that would be preferable. However, this approach seems to be our best option for now.
