Dashboard Filter - Followed task

Hi ! 

I would be great to have, among all the filters available to build a dashboard widget, a Followed by filter. Especially a Followed by > Current user. 

In our case, managers are monitoring many projects (wrike Tasks) they don't directly own. As they must keep these projects around, they are assigned to them so the projects appear in their personal Dashboards and Todos. This creates difficulty in making the difference between projects they actually own and must be proactive on, and projects they need to follow closely. This difficulty grows stronger as the manager is higher in hierarchy.

We also frequently use the "Follow" feature which is amazing for big teams, as we can easily ping and update all followers in the comments with an @Followers, without polluting their dashboards and personal todos by assigning them. 

A Follow filter would be perfect to leverage the two available "owning" options we have in Wrike. 

Thanks 🚀

This would be super helpful for me as well. I manage my current projects through a dashboard, but I would like to monitor the progress of other concurrent projects as well through the "follow" feature, and then have them filtered into a widget on my dashboard. thanks!

Was just hunting for a following feature/filter as well. We often use the DACI/RACI model and therefore have multiple roles regarding one request. I figured if I could "follow" the ones I need to be informed on but am not driving and create a list of just those it would really help keep things organized. Otherwise the notification is just another email.
