// Instagram doesn't allow to select all your posts, or all your comments, etc. to delete them.
// You can only select them one by one. This is slow as hell.
// Use this to select all the photos, comments, etc.

// 1. Open this page: https://www.instagram.com/your_activity/interactions/comments
// 2. Press the F12 key to open the developer tools
// 3. open the console tab in the developer tools
// 4. copy-paste the following code in the command prompt of the console and press enter
