r/rust is a nice place to keep up with what happens with the rust programming language. r/scala, sometimes quite quiet, has scala news. r/ocaml is very quiet, but probably still all you need to keep up with the news. (There are also other programming language subreddits.) r/programming is quite generic, HN is better, often links appear in both. r/math is sometimes okay-ish. If interested in politics and general discussions about Europe, r/europe is nice, they are running a series of threads on what people know about different countries. (Maybe other parts of the world also have active subreddits.) r/worldnews is a nice-ish feed of current news, r/news if you're American. r/truereddit values links to insightful articles, tries to be like the Reddit of old, but not particularly geek-oriented. r/depthhub collects links to insightful comments elsewhere in Reddit. r/metal used to run a series of "letter of the day", for bands the names of which begin with the letter, great way to discover new bands [1]. r/cocktails has pretty good quality mixology content. Some surprisingly specific hobbies sometimes have nice subreddit communities, like r/telecaster, r/bourbon, r/firefly.
