Usage

Create Reddit application

1. Open your Reddit application preferences by clicking here.
2. Add a new application. It doesn't matter what it's named, but calling it "clean-reddit" makes it easier to remember.
3. Select "script".
4. Redirect URL does not matter for script applications, so enter something like http://127.0.0.1:8080
5. Once created, you should see the name of your application followed by 14 character string. Enter this 14 character string as your client_id.
6. Copy the 27 character "secret" string into the client_secret field.

Username and password are simply your Reddit login credentials for the account that will be used.

Run the cleanReddit.py file

python3 cleanReddit.py

Enter client_id,client-secret,password,username and just wait untill everything is deleted
