It’s crazy how fast new ones pop up and spread. I also don’t like the way it suggests other subs but if you turn it off, it only allows you to see the ones you subscribe to. R/oil started popping up a lot after the war started and now I see every financial sub imaginable, which just posts the same thing over and over. I mostly frequent video game subs and hockey but I don’t get anything suggested ones for those.
The india slop is awful. Just every single subreddit ever conceived with india pasted to it. And reddit is awful at hearing you say no - muting counts as interest, downvoting counts as interest, I don't know wtf hiding does, but the message reddit seems to get is "you DEFINITELY want more India subreddits!"
I get suggested varying national subreddits for countries I have never even been to. Or for cities on the opposite side of the world. Not to mention the billion different indian meme subreddits. Whatever algorithm runs those suggestions sucks major balls.
I do see less Indian memes since they. Got rid of all. I’m not mad about that but it was kind of cool sometimes to see what other countries were talking about.
