UnsubBot - Mass Unfollow Reddit Subreddits

UnsubBot is a Python script that allows users to quickly unfollow all the subreddits they are subscribed to on Reddit using the Reddit API (PRAW).

Prerequisites

• Python 3.x
• PRAW (Python Reddit API Wrapper)
• Reddit account and API credentials

Install PRAW

To install PRAW, use pip:

pip install praw

Setup

Before running the script, you need to configure your Reddit API credentials.

1. Go to Reddit's Developer page and create a new developer application to get your client ID and client secret.

2. Replace the placeholders in the script with your credentials:

   • CLIENT_ID
   • CLIENT_SECRET
   • USERNAME
   • PASSWORD
   • USER_AGENT (can be any descriptive string)

CLIENT_ID = "Enter_your_clientid"
CLIENT_SECRET = "Enter_your_secretkey"
USERNAME = "your_username"
PASSWORD = "your_password"
USER_AGENT = "UnsubBot"

Usage

1. Clone or download the script:

   git clone https://github.com/your-username/unsubbot.git
   cd unsubbot

2. Run the script:

   python unsubbot.py

   The script will:

   • Authenticate using your Reddit credentials.
   • Retrieve all the subreddits you're subscribed to.
   • Unsubscribe from each subreddit.

3. You will see output like this:

   Found 20 subscribed subreddits. Leaving them now...
   Leaving r/subreddit1
   Leaving r/subreddit2
   ...
   All done!

Troubleshooting

• Authentication errors: Ensure your CLIENT_ID, CLIENT_SECRET, USERNAME, PASSWORD, and USER_AGENT are correct.
• API limits: Reddit's API has rate limits. If you unfollow too many subreddits too quickly, you might encounter temporary bans or limitations.
