Well, you don't have to worry about it anymore. Facebook created a new managing tool that allows you to delete old posts and photos, in batches instead of simply one by one.

How do you do it?

STEP 1: Go to your profile page, and scroll down to where you would create a new post. Click the button that says "Manage Posts."

STEP 2: Click the icon in the upper-right corner.

STEP 3: You can filter posts by date - for instance when you first started your Facebook profile. 

STEP 4: START DELETING!
