Delete Reactions

Use --delete-reactions when you want the tool to remove your own reactions in addition to deleting your messages.

What it does

When the tool encounters a message in scope, it can remove reactions that belong to you if the message itself is not being deleted.

Important behavior

  • If a message will be deleted, its reactions are not treated as separate work items.
  • If a message is preserved, your reactions on that message may also be preserved.
  • Reaction removal is always about your own reactions, not other users’ reactions.

Example

Terminal window
delete-me-discord --include-ids <channel_id> --delete-reactions --dry-run

In dry-run mode, the summary shows both:

  • delete reactions=...
  • preserve reactions=...

When to use it

Use it when you want cleanup to cover both:

  • your message history
  • your reaction history

If you want to understand how the timing and summaries are presented, see Log Output.
