replyXer

Delete all your Tweets/Replies — and more — for free.

A fork of lucahammer/tweetXer with one powerful addition: Replies-only mode.

replyXer is a free, open-source JavaScript userscript that lets you permanently delete your entire posting history on X (formerly Twitter), including old or hidden tweets that don't appear on your profile.
It works by using your official X data export and now gives you the option to delete only replies while keeping your original tweets.

✨ New in replyXer

• Replies-only mode (for tweets.js): Check the box to delete only replies (posts that have an in_reply_to_status_id). Perfect for cleaning up conversations without losing your original content.
• Full original TweetXer functionality is preserved (tweets, likes, DMs, bookmarks, slow-delete, unfollow, etc.).

Features

• ✅ Delete all your tweets (including old/hidden ones) using your data export
• ✅ New: Delete only replies from tweets.js
• ✅ Delete likes (unfavorite)
• ✅ Delete Direct Messages (one-by-one or by conversation)
• ✅ Export bookmarks (not included in X’s data export)
• ✅ Slow-delete mode (no data export needed — scrolls your profile)
• ✅ Unfollow everyone (handles rate limits)
• ✅ Resume interrupted deletions
• ✅ Works on desktop, Android, and iOS
• ✅ Install as a userscript or run directly from browser DevTools

Installation & Usage

1. Get your X Data Export

1. Go to X Settings → Your account → Download an archive of your data
2. Request the archive and wait for the email (can take up to 24 hours)
3. Unzip the downloaded file — you’ll need:
   • tweets.js (for tweets & replies)
   • tweet-headers.js
   • like.js
   • direct_messages*.js (for DMs)

2. Run replyXer

Option A: Userscript (recommended for repeated use)

• Install Tampermonkey, Violentmonkey, or FireMonkey
• Add the script directly from this repo:
  https://raw.githubusercontent.com/emptyArrayLLC/replyXer/main/replyXer.js

Option B: Browser Console (no extensions needed – fastest for one-time use)

This method takes about 30 seconds once you have your data files.

1. Log into X
   Open your browser and go to https://x.com (or twitter.com). Make sure you are logged in with the account you want to clean up.

2. Open DevTools

   • Windows / Linux: Press F12 or Ctrl + Shift + I
   • Mac: Press Cmd + Option + I
   • Or right-click anywhere on the page → Inspect → go to the Console tab.

3. Clear the console (recommended)
   Click the 🗑️ (clear) button at the top-left of the console, or just type clear() and press Enter.

4. Copy the full script
   Open this link in a new tab:
   https://raw.githubusercontent.com/emptyArrayLLC/replyXer/main/replyXer.js

   • Press Ctrl + A (Windows/Linux) or Cmd + A (Mac) to select everything.
   • Press Ctrl + C / Cmd + C to copy the entire script.

5. Paste and run
   Go back to the X tab where DevTools is open.
   Paste the entire script into the console (right-click → Paste or Ctrl + V / Cmd + V).
   Press Enter.

   A light-blue control panel will appear at the top of the page.

3. Delete your content

• Click Choose File and select your data file (e.g. tweets.js)
• For tweets.js only: Check the new "Replies only" box if you want to delete just replies
• (Optional) Use the advanced options to skip already-deleted items or start from scratch
• Click Delete and wait — the script deletes ~5–10 items per second

Mobile Support

Android

1. Install Firefox + Tampermonkey
2. Add the userscript from the raw URL above
3. Open x.com in Firefox

Advanced Options

• Some hidden retweets from banned accounts may remain
• Very large archives (>15k tweets) may cause browser slowdowns — close the console after starting
