## What it is
A Python CLI tool that uses Selenium to automate deleting your Facebook posts, page likes, and conversations through your real browser. It exists because Facebook lacks a usable deletion API and third-party apps require handing over credentials.

## Use cases
- delete all my old facebook posts
- scrub my facebook presence without deleting my account
- bulk unlike facebook pages
- delete facebook conversations automatically
- clean up years of facebook activity
- remove old facebook wall posts by year

## When to choose
- you want to bulk-delete Facebook content without trusting third-party apps with your credentials
- you prefer browser automation (Selenium) that mimics real user actions
- you have an English-language Facebook account and Chrome/Chromium installed

## When to avoid
- your Facebook account is not in English
- you need year-by-year deletion, which is currently broken
- you need a supported API-based solution or guaranteed server-side data removal
- you need a maintained tool with recent updates
