// DISCLAIMER: I'VE ONLY RUN THIS SCRIPT ON MY OWN ACCOUNT ONLY. PROCEED/USE WITH RISK! I MADE THIS SCRIPT IN 20 MINUTES SO BE WARNED!
// On the other hand, I've deleted 50,000 comments in a matter of minutes so it's been pretty damn handy

// 1. Go to Activity feed, like facebook.com/<username>/allactivity
// 2. Navigate to specific section of FB, like "Likes and Reactions" or "Comments", 
// like https://www.facebook.com/<username>/allactivity?privacy_source=activity_log&log_filter=cluster_<clusterid>
// 3. Navigate to year that you want to batch delete. You may need to scroll a little bit to let it load
// 4. Once you enter this there's no going back!!

Not future proof at all, but does the job for now.

@DeanyBox you run it in the browser console directly (in Developer Tools).

Wish I'd had this years ago; I tried all sorts of plugins and scripts to delete FB activity, and some of them worked quite well -- for a short time, until Zucky changed the code so they wouldn't work. Moot point now, though, because I finally utilized the nuclear option and deleted my FB, Insta, and WhatsApp about six months ago. You can do it, too! :)

Can someone please show me how this is supposed executed in console, I copied and pasted into console but i think the reason its not working is because i might be adding text that i shouldn’t be?

@mi-lee Hello :) I have tried all scripts but it's not working. I think it needs an update to the new Facebook, Could you please recheck the script? I just need interactions (post likes/comment likes) remover. Thanks in advance :)

@Meligy Hello :) the script you wrote is not working, could you please update it, just specific to the year (not specific to a date)? It gave me undefined result, as of a specific date too. Thanks!
