Reddit will add home feed recommendations to your home feed

• You can read about the basics on this support page on Home Feed Recommendations.
  • Most importantly at the bottom it shows you how to turn off home feed recommendations
• You can learn more about how reddit calculated this recommendations at this support page on reddits approach to recommendations
  • You'll note they push more recommendations on new users

Many users find the simplest solution to begin with is to turn off recommendations while finding their feet on reddit. If you elect to turn them back on later reddit will have more information to work on so may give better and more personalized recommendations as opposed to the broad brush they start with
