(Can we?) Set expiry for existing posts

Hi there

I see we can set the “Delete posts after a set amount of days” option from Akkoma-FE.
But I believe that I will only be effective with new posts, am I correct?

So can we set expiry for existing old posts (before we set the default expiry per account)?
If the feature doesn’t exist yet, would like to request one.

@FloatingGhost Sorry for not clearly explaining.
I mean a Per Account basis.

For example, one user on my instance wants their old posts (older than x days) deleted.
They have enabled the expiry option on Akkoma-FE but it’s only applied to new posts.

I think we don’t have this feature yet right?
