Social media has taken over the information world today. In social networks, people learn everything: news, the latest trends, buy goods in social networks, communicate with other people, and make new acquaintances. With the way Social Networks have invaded our lives, it has become easier and easier to express your opinion and find like-minded people. Or to get into arguments with other people and try to figure out who is more right. Twitter is the perfect place to do that.
Twitter is one of the world’s leading social networks for debate and discussion. At least half a billion tweets are posted here every day. Everyone on Twitter posts their opinions on certain things or posts that they like or links to news that bothers them, for example. Or you can like and follow other people to track their preferences.
At times, people may change their opinions. After a few years, you may change your mind about a lot of things. If this is the case, it can sometimes be helpful to remove the likes on old posts that you no longer agree with.
Removing the likes is fairly quick and easy. But what if you decide to remove all of your likes from all of your Twitter posts? There are several ways to remove all your likes.
How do you remove the likes one by one
The old-fashioned way to remove the likes is to remove them one by one manually. You can do this by using the Twitter app, the web version for your Laptop or PC, or your tablet.
Although the process sounds pretty simple, it’s pretty monotonous and time-consuming. The advantage of this method is that if you decide to leave likes somewhere in the deletion process, you will have the option of just not deleting them. To do this you need to :
- Log in to Twitter
- Open the Likes section
- Browse the tweets
- Click “Undo Like” next to all the posts where you decided to remove the likes
The only disadvantage of this method is that this page can only display the last 3200 likes. Everything that was done before will not be displayed and removing the likes there will be impossible.
How to remove the likes with your browser
If you need to remove a huge number of likes you can do it quickly using your web browser’s Twitter console. For this, you will need a basic knowledge of how the console works. This method works only for the Google Chrome browser. To do this, you need to :
- First, start Chrome
- Then log in to your Twitter account
- Go to the Likes section
- Once you’re in that section, press F12. This command will open Chrome’s debug console
- Then click on “Console” to open the tab
- Copy the script “ $(‘.ProfileTweet-actionButtonUndo.ProfileTweet-action-unfavorite’).click(); ” without quotes into the “Console” field
- Click Enter
- You can check your result
You can repeat this procedure as many times as you like. This method is much faster and more efficient than the previous one.
How to remove the likes with Twitter Archive Eraser
