Whenever Iopen Redditthese days, it feels like I’m just asking to see outrage bait.

That meansposts from AITA,posts from AIO (Am I Overreacting), and posts about political turmoil.

My brain needs a break from all of that once in a while.

The List Management tab in Protego, where you can import and export blocklists created in the app.

Protego lets you create a personalized blocklist to hide all kinds of outrage fuel on Reddit.

Hit the+button and selectAdd Keyword List.

This lets you add multiple keyword filters to Reddit in one go.

Protego’s social media blocklist page in its Mac app. It lists popular social networks and has a toggle next to each name in the list.

you better add a comma between keywords, eg: AITA, AIO, Elon Musk, etc.

Protego also supports wildcards, which lets you block multiple variations of an offending word.

Protego lets you export blocklists in a JSON file, which it imports seamlessly.

Protego’s Settings tab open in its Mac app.

To use this feature, launch the app and go toFilter > List Management.

you’re able to also block custom domains by going toFilter > Domains.

Hit the+button here and selectAdd Domain List.

While this feature is great, Protego still needs the ability to filter out subreddits from your feed.

The developeris workingon this feature, and it’ll hopefully be available in the near future.

After setting up the app, opening r/popular or r/all no longer ruins my day.
