(pedant alert)

Someone on social media will have "a following", which is a group of people that follow them.  The plural of that is ("followings") would apply to "more than one person who has more than one group following them", and wouldn't really apply here.

The words "You are following" would work in the English version of https://www.openstreetmap.org/dashboard .  Would that not fit because of space or translation reasons (i.e. is this word used elsewhere and must it be a noun)?
