GitHub Unfollow Script

auto unfollow script for those you follow but not following back on GitHub !

Run With GitHub Codespaces

you can even simply do this on GitHub Codespaces

To run the script in GitHub Codespaces:

1. (optional) Fork the repository to your own GitHub account.
2. Open a GitHub Codespace:
   • If you forked the repository, open your forked repository in GitHub Codespaces.
   • If you did not fork the repository, open any repository to create a GitHub Codespace.
3. If you forked the repository:
   • The unfollow.js file should already exist.
   • If you did not fork the repository, create a new file named unfollow.js and paste the JavaScript code into this file.
4. Open a terminal in Codespaces (View > Terminal).
5. in the terminal, to install the Octokit library, run

   npm install @octokit/rest
   

6. run the script with

   node unfollow.js
   

Remember to replace 'your_username' and 'your_token_with_correct_permission' in the script with your actual GitHub username and personal access token.

This is the exact URL for the correct permissions ready for you:

I tested it in one run, up to 4K it can scan but will take few minutes, so better be sure you have stable connection and I did not hit the rate limit that time. Enjoy !
