All of a sudden Reddit isn’t complete trash anymore. Less than a dozen words in my filter list and my front page is completely different. As of now absolutely worth the $2.

Definitely works, but scrolling Reddit stops working almost every time, so only get the first page load and nothing else.

Protego is such a useful app, yet is so simple to use. It’s an essential on my iPad. A couple asks/suggestions: - Is it possible to extend the keyword filtering to include the subreddit name? For example, politic* would filter posts with politic* in the title as well as subreddits with politic* in the name. - Can the redirect to old Reddit toggle be added to the Quick View dropdown menu in Safari? Sometimes it’s necessary to turn it off just to quickly look at a page, and it would be handy to not have to go over to the app for that.
