Tum(bler del)eter

Python script that uses the Tumblr API to remove all "empty reblogs" for a tumblr account's main blog.

Empty reblogs are defined as posts on the account where both of the following hold:

1. the last addition in the reblog trail is NOT made by the account.
2. the account did not add any tags.

Running

You're going to need to get authentication for the Tumblr API. First set up an application.

Then copy the env.example file to .env and populate the four required values. After that just run the program using uv run main.py and give it time to run.

Rate limits

Tumblr's API has hard-coded rate limits, so the script will wait on timeout and try again at a later point. Note that as a result, running the script may take a while (especially on blogs with a large number of posts).
