So, how do you deal with communities that don’t interest you? I personally block them, because I don’t like them popping up on my All feed, but at the same time I don’t want to switch to Subscribed because a new interesting community might pop up.
What’s your strategy?
I only browse by subscribed. Part of the reason I stopped browsing reddit is they won’t stop showing me content I didn’t sub.
I browse all because I don’t really know what communities are out there that I might be interested in.
There’s also some communities where I might not like the content very often but there’s a few hidden gems.
Exactly. You’ll never know what you miss out on when always browsing communities you’re already subscribed to. Of course there’s also some trash on the frontpage.
I feel like percentage wise there’s a lot less than on Reddit. Plus new communities are always being creating and I like staying in the loop
You could browse only your subscriptions on reddit, too.
The algo on the official app inserts other content even so. It was never a problem on RIF.
Maybe, I never used that. It didn’t do that on the normal desktop version of the webside. Not sure what a RIF is.
Maybe because I only used Apollo and occasionally old.reddit.com but I never experienced that, thank goodness.
That would drive me nuts…
It’s definitely because Apollo. It was never a problem in RIF, only in the official app once 3PAs were killed.
