I don't think anyone would take offense if you don't follow etc. I certainly don't. I am doing likewise. It's too much and tired of my inbox clogged up. I don't subscribe to many anyway and the ones I do fill up my email. No one could safely keep up to the who lot, subscribing, following, commenting, clapping etc. Am quite sick of it. I removed hundreds of followers as they never interested and most non members. Don't worry what others think it's your life and time.
