Is there a way of blocking a domain from a Safari browser search?

Hi there,

I want to permanently block sites from appearing in a list when I do a search in Safari, whether it's using Google, DuckDuckGo etc. I'm wondering if there's an extension that would filter the search results and get rid of, for example, Quora and Reddit which, IMO, provide puerile responses.

I know I can do this in the search field with the -site command included, but I am looking for a way to permanently and automatically doing this. Or perhaps there is a browser other than Safari that offers this functionality.

Thanks in advance.

Thanks for that... I did a search ages ago on the App Store for something like this and couldn't find what I was after.

However, I have now found one called UBLACKLIST which does it exactly.

Many thanks...

Hi,

Thanks for your reply.

As in my previous post, I have actually found an app on the App Store that will filter out domains from Google search results.

The app is UBLACKLIST.

You can't do this natively, but there are extensions for Safari that would accomplish this.

Hi Maz ,

I too would like to block by domain ~ makes sense because each domain has several IP addresses . I haven't figured it out yet but the link below is about filtering .

🐤 The duck is a search engine and/ or browser . You could also check the App Store .
