Does anyone know of a way to archive all messages in Android/Google Messages maybe older than a certain timeframe?

I have 100s of old conversations spanning back several years. I finally decided it would be nice to archive (not delete) ones that aren’t relevant at the moment. The only way I figured to do this is swipe each conversation one by one.

Is there a faster way to just do it all in one swoop?

Edit: I wrote a quick script to do it via manipulating the Google Messages webui: https://sh.itjust.works/comment/4646349 Worked for me!

    When Android is old enough, yep. Android 13 needs an update of Titanium backup for it to work again. Alas, TB didn’t get an update since '19 so I’m using neo backup now. (Haven’t tested message restores yet)
