Continuity error on (un)following observations

Please fill out the following sections to the best of your ability, it will help us investigate bugs if we have this information at the outset. Screenshots are especially helpful, so please provide those if you can.

Platform: Website

URLs (aka web addresses) of any relevant observations or pages: https://www.inaturalist.org/home and any observation that you follow

Screenshots of what you are seeing (instructions for taking a screenshot on computers and mobile devices: https://www.take-a-screenshot.org/):


Description of problem:
When a observation you have identified gets updated and appears on your home feed clicking the gear in the top right and selecting unsubscribe does the same thing as clicking the unfollow observation button in the observation.
One of them is using the wrong term.

Here it’s the same thing.

I could imagine, that this has another meaning in the observation itsself. You can choose:
a) to unfollow the observation and get no more notification
b) to follow the observer, to be notify about everything, he observes

In the notification, the second option is not necessary, so it’s “missing” in the gear menu.
