[Recipe] Delete all your likes/favorites from Twitter

delete-likes-from-twitter.md

Ever wanted to delete all your likes/favorites from Twitter but only found broken/expensive tools? You are in the right place.

1. Go to: https://twitter.com/{username}/likes
2. Open the console and run the following JavaScript code:

setInterval(() => {
  for (const d of document.querySelectorAll('div[data-testid="unlike"]')) {
    d.click()
  }
  window.scrollTo(0, document.body.scrollHeight)
}, 1000)

It does not work for me, I also tried this script:

setInterval(() => {
const d = document.querySelector('div[data-testid="unlike"]')
if(d) {
d.click()
} else {
window.scrollTo(0, document.body.scrollHeight)
}
}, 1000)

And didn't worked also ):

Is there anyone who deletes DMs chat?

It didn't work for me, so I tried waiting 100 milliseconds and it seemed to work, odd.
setInterval(() => {
for (const d of document.querySelectorAll('div[data-testid="unlike"]')) {
d.click()
}
window.scrollTo(0, document.body.scrollHeight)
setTimeout(pass, 100);
}, 1000)

function getAllTweetButtons() { return Array.from(document.querySelectorAll('.tweet-interact-favorite')); }

function wait(ms) { return new Promise(resolve => setTimeout(resolve, ms)); }

async function processTweet(tweetButton) { tweetButton.focus(); tweetButton.click(); // Click to like (if not liked) or unlike (if liked) await wait(1000); // Reduced wait time

// Check if the tweet is still liked, if so, click again to unlike if (tweetButton.classList.contains('tweet-interact-favorited')) { tweetButton.click(); // Click again to ensure it's unliked await wait(500); // Reduced wait time console.log('Ensured tweet is unliked'); } else { console.log('Processed tweet'); } }

async function removeAll() { let count = 0; let tweetButtons = getAllTweetButtons();

while (count < 500 && tweetButtons.length > 0) { for (let i = 0; i < tweetButtons.length && count < 500; i++) { await processTweet(tweetButtons[i]); count++; if (count % 50 === 0) { console.log('Waiting to prevent rate-limiting'); await wait(15000); // Wait to prevent rate-limiting } }

// Scroll to the bottom of the page to load more tweets
window.scrollTo(0, document.body.scrollHeight);
await wait(3000); // Wait for more tweets to load
tweetButtons = getAllTweetButtons(); // Refresh the list of tweet buttons

}

console.log('Finished, count =', count); }

removeAll();

Fix for shadow likes on feed Works with Old Twitter layouts Modify the rate limiting waiting as neccessary

Im getting a Promise error when i try this
"promise {: undefined}"

It takes new frontend version and use this code please

setInterval(() => {
  for (const d of document.querySelectorAll('button[data-testid="unlike"]')) {
    d.click()
  }
  window.scrollTo(0, document.body.scrollHeight)
}, 5000)

Hi, is there only ways to delete them, not download them somewhere ? I just want to ctrl+f among my 10000+ liked tweet, but it is impossible, the infinite scrool broke after 200 loaded tweets, and I think it's by design.

setInterval(() => {
  const d = document.querySelector('button[data-testid="unlike"]')
  if(d) {
    d.click()
  } else {
    window.scrollTo(0, document.body.scrollHeight)
  }
}, 1000)

worked for me.

What is the limit on this what if you have thousands of likes? I want to start from 0.

To speed up this code while avoiding rate-limiting, consider decreasing the wait time incrementally. One approach is to reduce the time between unlikes initially and increase it if we start approaching Twitter's rate limits. We can also remove the additional wait every 50 tweets. However, this comes with a higher chance of hitting rate limits, so it’s important to adjust the timing carefully.

Below code with shorter delays that increase only if a rate-limiting error is detected. This setup reduces the wait to 3 seconds between actions and increases it only if an error occurs.

function nextUnlike() {
  return document.querySelector('[data-testid="unlike"]');
}

function wait(ms) {
  return new Promise(resolve => setTimeout(resolve, ms));
}

async function removeAll() {
  let count = 0;
  let next = nextUnlike();
  let waitTime = 3000; // Start with a shorter wait time of 3 seconds

  while (next && count < 1200) {
    try {
      next.focus();
      next.click();
      console.log(`Unliked ${++count} tweets`);
      await wait(waitTime); // Initial wait time of 3 seconds
      next = nextUnlike();

      // If no unlike button is found, scroll to load more
      if (!next && count < 1200) {
        window.scrollTo(0, document.body.scrollHeight); 
        await wait(5000); // Shorter wait for loading more tweets
        next = nextUnlike();
      }
    } catch (error) {
      console.error('An error occurred:', error);
      waitTime = Math.min(waitTime * 2, 60000); // Exponentially increase wait time if an error occurs
      console.log(`Rate limit hit? Increasing wait time to ${waitTime / 1000} seconds.`);
      await wait(waitTime); // Wait before retrying
    }
  }

  if (next) {
    console.log('Finished early to prevent rate-limiting');
  } else {
    console.log('Finished, count =', count);
  }
}

removeAll();

Explanation:

1. Shorter Initial Wait Time: The initial wait time is set to 3 seconds instead of 10.
2. Dynamic Wait Time: The wait time doubles each time an error occurs, up to a maximum of 1 minute. This approach helps slow down only if there’s a rate-limiting risk.
3. Reduced Scroll Wait: The scroll wait is reduced to 5 seconds, making it quicker to load additional tweets.

Whenever i am on twitter it says i am following the three people i clicked the follow button on but whenever i click it it says to "find people to follow"
1 is that connected to me using this to delete my likes

This script is for handling the case where tweets appear in your "Likes" list but do not have the red heart symbol (i.e., they appear unliked). It ensures these tweets are properly unliked by first liking them and then unliking them.

 function nextLike() {
  return document.querySelector('[data-testid="like"]');
}

function nextUnlike() {
  return document.querySelector('[data-testid="unlike"]');
}

function wait(ms) {
  return new Promise(resolve => setTimeout(resolve, ms));
}

async function removeAll() {
  let count = 0;
  while (count < 500) {
    try {
      // Find the next tweet with a "like" button (appears unliked but is in liked tweets list)
      const likeButton = nextLike();
      if (likeButton) {
        // Scroll the tweet into view to ensure it's interactable
        likeButton.scrollIntoView({ behavior: 'smooth', block: 'center' });
        await wait(1000); // Wait for the tweet to be in view

        // Like the tweet first to reset its state
        likeButton.focus();
        likeButton.click();
        console.log(`Liked tweet to reset state`);
        await wait(1000); // Wait 1 second for the like action to complete

        // Now find the "unlike" button and unlike the tweet
        const unlikeButton = nextUnlike();
        if (unlikeButton) {
          unlikeButton.focus();
          unlikeButton.click();
          console.log(`Unliked ${++count} tweets`);
          await wait(1000); // Wait 1 second between unlikes
        }

        // Remove the processed tweet from the DOM to avoid reprocessing it
        const tweetElement = likeButton.closest('[data-testid="tweet"]');
        if (tweetElement) {
          tweetElement.remove();
        }
      } else {
        // If no more "like" buttons are found, scroll to load more tweets
        window.scrollTo(0, document.body.scrollHeight);
        await wait(2000); // Wait 2 seconds for more tweets to load
      }
    } catch (error) {
      console.error('An error occurred:', error);
      break;
    }
  }
  console.log('Finished, count =', count);
}

removeAll();
