Though this seems not to be logical: In general preferences i can deactivate followers, but not for pages?
That is 2 different thing :
1. User following
- What my colleague suggested you that setting in earlier is allow admin to deactivate for the user follower feature only.
2. Page follower
- The main purpose of the Page feature itself is allow user to follow this Page.
- If you just want to disallow user to like this Page, unfortunately currently we do not have this functionality allow owner to deactivate this.
Even followers app for pages i can deactivate, but no matter it is showing on in frontend? As there is an app for this, it does not seem to be a core feature…
If you are referring that followers Page app, that is just allow admin to decide whether need to render the followers widget on the Page under the sidebar area, basically what this widget does is allow visitor quickly to see who follow this Page recently (

If you deactivate it, this widget will never show on the page under sidebar area.
