How do I look up deactivated accounts I follow?

I've hit the follow limit, so I want to narrow it down some. I've read there's a way to search accounts you follow that have been deactivated by just searching "user" and any accounts that were will appear as "user123456" or whatever, but my account doesn't show a search bar for my following account tab, but it does for my followers tab. I've tried Tiktok Lite app and the main Tiktok app and it doesn't show a search bar. The only other option I can think of is manually scroll through the 9.9K accounts I follow which I really don't want to do 😅😐.
