    description
    redditUntranslate automatically cleans up Reddit URLs by removing the ?tl=xx query string parameter, effectively disabling the auto-translation feature. This ensures you view content in its original language without unwanted translations.
    
    Whether you frequently browse international subreddits or just want to streamline your Reddit experience, redditUntranslate keeps your browsing free from automatic language adjustments, allowing you to enjoy Reddit exactly as intended.
    
    Key Features:
    
        Automatically removes the ?tl=xx parameter from Reddit URLs.
        Disables auto translation, showing content in its original language.
        Lightweight and runs quietly in the background, with no setup required.
    
    How It Works:
    Simply install redditUntranslate, and it will automatically modify Reddit URLs as you browse, ensuring that you see the original, untranslated content every time.
    
    V2.1 : Added an optional Google filtering toggle, it will ad a string that ignores translated Reddit pages when you do a Google search, it will however add an ugly string of text at the end of your query.

    V2.2 : Added a sub-toggle to the Google filtering option that restricts the appender to queries containing the word "reddit", so the ugly string of text only ends up on searches where it's actually useful. It will however only catch searches where you explicitly typed "reddit", so a query that's clearly about a Reddit thread but doesn't include the word won't be filtered. The popup is also a bit wider now for readability.
