Answer 2

You can achieve this is by using JOIN statements in your query:

example of how you can achieve your final result:

CREATE VIEW [Followers] AS 
SELECT a.name, a.email, a.mobile, COUNT(SELECT COUNT(followerID) FROM follow WHERE followerID = a.userid), COUNT(SELECT COUNT(followeeID) FROM follow WHERE followeeID = a.userid) FROM users a INNER JOIN follow b ON b.followerID = a.userid
