You’re fine haha, you actually didn’t follow the person, you just followed the topic. There’s no way to see it again unless someone else responds to it too, that’s when you’ll see it in your notifications (the bell).
To follow someone, you’d have to go to their profile, scroll all the way down and you’ll see follow or unfollow under their profile pic.
Also this is a perfect opportunity to let you guys know you don’t need to say camping/following/anything similar when scrolling through questions:
a) it confuses the og questions/topics
b) it bothers people and gives false hope
The small “follow” button is what this is for. Or if you want to revisit the question/topic later on just click on it, and press the like button with the heart, this will put it in your favs and you’ll always have access to it
I hope this helps dears

Guys how do i unfollow someone i was trying to reply but i misclicked.
