Overview

Social Amnesia presents a compelling solution for those looking to manage their online presence on platforms like Twitter and Reddit. As society becomes increasingly aware of digital footprints, the need to curate one's social media history has never been more apparent. This tool allows users to establish a specific time frame for which their content will remain accessible, while wiping the rest from existence. By providing customizable options, users can maintain a balance between preservation and privacy, certainly a much-needed feature in today’s fast-paced digital landscape.

Despite the promising features, it’s important to consider that the project is no longer actively maintained and may be subject to limitations due to recent API changes on both Reddit and Twitter. Users should approach with caution and be prepared to encounter potential issues.
