How It Works

Protego provides an intuitive filtering system that puts you in control of your Reddit experience. Whether browsing your home feed or exploring subreddits, simply add keywords to filter out content you'd rather not see. Each keyword creates a powerful filter that works across both post titles and descriptions, ensuring thorough content filtering.
Want to filter multiple variations of a word? Use the wildcard feature (*) for flexible matching. For example, "politic*" will match politics, political, and politician. Add multiple keywords at once using comma separation, and your filters take effect instantly with no page refresh needed.

Before Filtering

With Protego disabled, you can see multiple posts containing "harry" in the titles and descriptions. The wildcard filter "harr*" would match these posts, but since filtering is turned off, all posts are visible.

After Filtering
