Protego for Reddit
Reddit, without
the noise
A Safari extension that clears the clutter from your Reddit feed, so you can browse Reddit on the web, not the app. Filter keywords, communities, and more.
Designed for Safari on iPhone, iPad, Mac, and Apple Vision Pro.

Why the browser
Reddit belongs in your browser
The official app is built to keep you scrolling. In Safari, you decide what Reddit shows you, and Protego does the filtering.
You set the terms
The app serves a feed tuned to keep you there. In Safari, Protego filters it by your rules, so what is left is what you came for.
Quiet by default
No notifications begging you back, no red badge on an icon. Reddit is there when you open a tab, and gone when you close it.
Less of you gets collected
Reading in Safari keeps Reddit’s app off your phone, along with everything an app can gather in the background. Safari’s tracker blocking handles the rest.
No “get the app” walls
No full-screen nags to install the app, no login wall just to read a thread. Protego clears the few interruptions that are left.
On your own terms
Reddit is full of posts worth reading, mixed with plenty you would rather skip. Filter hides what you never want to see, Transform clears the clutter and distractions from everything else, and Limits helps you step away when you have scrolled enough. What is left is the content you actually came for.
Filter
Choose what you filter
- KeywordsHide posts whose title or body matches a pattern.
- CommunitiesHide a whole community, or block its page.
- UsersHide one person’s posts and comments.
- DomainsHide posts linking to a particular site.
- Social MediaHide posts linking to X, TikTok, and more.
Keywords go further: politic* matches politic, politics, and political, [#m] hides [30m] and [18m], and keyword groups switch a whole set on or off at once. Pull suggestions trending in your region, and switch any filter off without deleting it.
Transform
Clear away the clutter
Transform reshapes Reddit's pages. Pick a preset and Protego applies a recommended set of options, stripping out distractions to bring new Reddit closer to the old one. Fine-tune anything afterward.
- Hide thumbnails, avatars, flair, badges, banners, and the vote, award, and join buttons
- Hide recommendations, promoted posts, login and app nudges, and Reddit Answers
- Collapse or hide comments carrying media, and the moderator comment pinned in threads
- Bring back post authors on the home, popular, and news feeds, where Reddit hides them
Limits
Take back your time
Filtering hides what you do not want to see. Limits goes further and blocks Reddit itself, a step at a time. Pair a limit with a Focus like Sleep or Study and it turns itself on.
- Off Nothing is blocked.
- Block Home & Popular Everything else stays open.
- Block all main feeds Communities and posts stay open.
- Allow posts only Only direct links to posts are allowed.
- Block everything All of Reddit is blocked.
Stats
Count what never reached you
Every post Protego filters is one you never had to scroll past. The Stats screen adds them up, this month and across the lifetime of your lists, with an activity chart of the noise you skipped. Counts sync across your devices, and a shareable card turns a satisfying number into a brag.
Private by design
No account, no tracking, no browsing history collected. Your filter lists stay on your devices and in your own iCloud.
