Follower Vs Friend

Hi guys. I am trying to understand the overall specs of the software in order to better shape it for our case scenario.
So, here comed another noob question: How do followers compare to friends in EasySocial ?

From my understanding friends feature is used to allow user to better control the privacy where he can choose to post stuff visible only to his friends.
Followers from other hand is somehow like a public "subscription" to users post.
Followers see all the public content where friends can see the "private" content aswell - the content that user choose to make available only to "friends"

So in our case scenario the "follower" function is more suited since we deal only with public content but we want to build a service where that public content can be sorted on the followed users.

So, can we drop the "friends" functionality and use only the "follower" functionality ?
