**Brief description**
When using:
https://dev.twitch.tv/docs/v5/reference/us…ers#get-user-follows
The offset value is being ignored, making it impossible to load all data (above 100).
Example call:
https://api.twitch.tv/kraken/users/43091333/follows/channels?limit=100&offset=0
Returns first 100 items, with a _total of 382.
If you then increment the offset:
https://api.twitch.tv/kraken/users/43091333/follows/channels?limit=100&offset=100
The same data set is returned.
I started getting reports about this about two days ago, and it appears to only impact some users. In my case, I was not using Oauth for authentication, but rather passing in user id via URL and setting the Accept header : application/vnd.twitchtv.v5+json.
There are a number of other reports on the Twitch Developer discord, included below:

You get the first 100 and if there are more you're out of luck getting them. You can try it with this for example this to see the effect https://twitch-tools.rootonline.de/followinglist_viewer.php

> It's not just an offset issue.
> For example https://api.twitch.tv/kraken/users/19264788/follows/channels, which is Nightbot, and follows 93 users, only returns a single follow regardless of offset (or lack thereof).
> Using Helix on the other hand returns all 93 follows without issue.
>
> Offset value is being ignored for some users (I know there is now a limit to 900, but its ignore for all values (again, just for some users, and just since last night).
