Reddit started doing this too over the summer - aggressively showing me content from other subreddits in my feed taking any interaction with the posts as proof that I should join them as well. I find it annoying too since curating a list of my favorite subreddits was always a fundamental part of using the site.
- meeseeks26 5y agothat's why I use reddit clients like sync for reddit ..no recommendation bs just get the feed from subreddits I subscribed for .. imo you should try it
- vanilla_nut 5y agoThe one thing that keeps reddit going for me is their detente policy with third-party clients and browser add-ons. I can use RES + old reddit redirect on my desktop browsers and Narwhal on my phone, and I can completely avoid ads and scummy behavior that's seeping into the site in general. Unlike, say, Facebook, who literally spent thousands and thousands of (wo)man hours figuring out how to beat ad blockers in the News Feed. Someone at Reddit is still looking out for power users, giving us ways to beat the system and still use the site. And it's remained the only (non-HN) social media I can stand for years as a result. Whoever you are, thank you!
- codq 5y agoJust wanted to +1 Narwhal for Reddit — excellent UI, and lacking all the right features. I can’t, and won’t do mobile reddit without it.
