How to find the oldest tweet I liked on Twitter!

by Arif Akdogan

The other day, I was casually checking my recent likes on Twitter when a random thought popped into my head: What was the oldest tweet I ever liked on Twitter? It felt like a fun piece of internet nostalgia to uncover, so I started scrolling.

At first, I thought it would be easy, but I quickly realized that Twitter doesn’t offer a shortcut to jump to the oldest like.

The more I scrolled, the more frustrating it became. With a large number of liked tweets, it was taking forever, and I knew that if I had even more likes, the task would be nearly impossible.

But after some research, I found out that there’s a much easier way to do this—one that doesn’t involve endless scrolling.

Let me show you how.

Your old tweets might not reflect who you are today. Here’s how you can delete tweets older than a year ⬇️

As time changes, people’s opinions change too. On Twitter, as a free, open environment for ideas, claims, and arguments, people frequently ask for a feature to delete tweets by date. You can delete all your tweets, retweets, likes, replies, media, and all your Twitter archive on Circleboom.

Method 1: Manually Scrolling to the Beginning

The most obvious way to find your oldest liked tweet is by scrolling all the way back in the "Likes" section of your profile.

However, this method comes with some major drawbacks:

⛔
If you’ve liked hundreds or thousands of tweets, scrolling will take a very long time.
⛔
Twitter doesn’t load all liked tweets at once; instead, they load in small batches as you keep scrolling.

In my case, I had a large number of liked tweets, and even that felt like an impossible task. If you have a similar or higher number of likes, this method is just not practical.

That’s why I looked for a better solution.

Method 2: Using Circleboom Twitter to Sort and Analyze Likes

Instead of wasting hours scrolling, I found a faster and smarter way: Circleboom Twitter, an official partner of X.

Official X Partner

Circleboom allows you to sort and analyze all your liked tweets in a structured and organized way. Not only does it display your likes, but it also provides useful details like:

➡️ The creation date of the tweet, not the exact date and time you liked it.

➡️ Engagement analytics (retweets, replies, etc.).

➡️ A sorting feature that allows you to sort your liked tweets by creation date, making it easy to find your oldest like.

If you have fewer than 3,200 likes, Circleboom retrieves your entire like history—from your very oldest liked tweet to the most recent one.

This means you can:

✅ Sort your liked tweets by creation date to see your oldest liked tweets, which likely include your oldest like.

✅ Export all your liked tweets to an Excel file for a deeper analysis.

If you want, even delete old likes you no longer need.

Here’s how to use Circleboom to find your first Twitter like effortlessly.
