Some of the subreddits are very reasonable, actually! I have had good luck submitting articles to Proggit without external support. When my submissions slip through the cracks, I can usually find fault with my approach: either the timing or the title was awful. There ARE bots that seemingly downmod everything in the 'New' queue, but Reddit's system is designed to keep nascent articles alive longer, so they don't have much overall effect.
