Your muted words
Words and phrases you choose — block any topic across your whole feed in one tap.
Keyword filtering
The RSS reader built around muting.
If you're searching for an RSS reader with keyword filtering, you've found the one where that's the whole point: muted words on every plan, feed-wide, plus nine maintained junk filters on Pro.
Muted words free
Feed-wide, not per-feed
Phrases supported
Filtering is the product.
Most readers treat keyword filtering as a power-user add-on: paid tiers, caps, per-feed rules to maintain. Muuted starts there instead — muted words are on every plan, apply to every source at once, and take one tap to set.
Every plan — 20 muted words free, unlimited on Pro
Every source — one mute covers the whole feed
Every catch shown — reviewable, reversible
What you can filter
Two layers: your keywords for topics, Muuted's filters for junk formats.
Layer two
Nine junk filters
Sponsored posts, coupons, press releases, gambling promos, viral bait and more — maintained by Muuted, switched on by you.
Underneath
No algorithm
Filtering only works if nothing reorders your feed behind your back. Muuted has no ranking engine — published order, always.
How it compares.
Feedly gates filters behind Pro+. Inoreader caps them at 50. NewsBlur trains per-site. Muuted ships muting free and junk filtering maintained. See the full nine-column comparison.
Hacker News, built in.
Muuted speaks the Hacker News API natively — not just as another feed.
Comments in your feed
Stories with a real HN discussion wear a comment-count pill — tap it and the full thread opens right in Muuted, nested like on HN.
Any story, any source
A BBC piece or a blog post from your own subscriptions — if HN is discussing it, the card says so. One tap reads the thread.
Developer sources, first-class
Lobsters, GitHub releases, Stack Overflow tags, DEV and arXiv ride the same feed. See the whole developer setup.
