Prior and related work
The initial ephemetoot script was based on this tweet-deleting script by @flesueur
ephemetoot relies heavily on the Mastodon.py package by @halcy
Looks like Gabriel Augendre had the same idea. You might prefer to use Gabriel's cleantoots instead.
Usage
You can use ephemetoot to delete Mastodon toots that are older than a certain number of days (default is 365). Toots can optionally be saved from deletion if:
- they are pinned; or
- they include certain hashtags; or
- they have certain visibility; or
- they are individually listed to be kept
Contributing
ephemetoot is tested using pytest.
