discord.py delete messages apart from pinned ones

I want to delete all the messages in a channel apart from the pinned ones, I tried this solution

On message delete message Discord.py

but it's the non-rewrite version so it's not working for me sadly.

You can only bulk delete (purge) a maximum of 100 messages at a time, but this should do the trick.

@client.command()
async def purge(ctx):
    def not_pinned(msg):
        return not msg.pinned
    purged = await ctx.channel.purge(limit=100, check=not_pinned)
    await ctx.send(f"Successfully removed {len(purged)} non-pinned messages!")
