Filter Reddit by social media

You joined r/hogwarts for the conversation, and half of what arrives is a video hosted somewhere else, with the comments happening over there too. Those posts can leave your feed in a single move, while the community, its text posts, and the threads you came for stay exactly where they were.

Switch on a platform instead of typing its addresses

Bluesky, Facebook, Imgur, Instagram, LinkedIn, Mastodon, Pinterest, Snapchat, Threads, TikTok, Tumblr, X/Twitter, and YouTube are all supported, ready to turn on in the app. Each name stands for a whole set of that platform’s addresses, so X/Twitter takes t.co along with twitter.com and x.com. Several platforms’ short links are in there too, which a hand-typed list often misses.

Clear a whole category of link posts at once

Turning on a platform filters every post whose link points there, wherever it turns up: feeds, community pages, search results, and profiles. The link is what matters, not the subject, so a text post about a platform stays, and so do comments. One tap is the shortest route from a feed of reposted video to a feed of Reddit.

See which address caught a post

Turn on Reveal Mode and a post the TikTok switch caught wears a badge reading Domain and the address that matched, not the platform’s name. That address is the useful part: it tells you what a platform’s links look like when they arrive, and which one to add by hand if a new one starts turning up.

Filter a site the list does not cover

The thirteen platforms are the whole preset, so a site outside them needs an entry of its own. Type the address under Domains: Social Media is a preset over the domain list rather than a separate kind of filter, so both are matched the same way. Switching a platform on adds no rows to your own Domains list.

Switch platforms back off, one or all

A platform you switch off is not deleted, and the link posts it was hiding come back on the next Safari refresh, which makes trying one for a week a cheap experiment. The Social Media options menu carries Disable All for the whole set in one go, and asks you to confirm before it runs.
