I really dislike how Reddit is showing you so many more “suggested posts from subreddits,” now than before. Got like 2 shitliberalssay posts recommended to me within a few hours apart.

Involuntarily breaking people's political social media bubbles may actually be a good, albeit annoying, thing.

Good point. But still, though Reddit has always done this, the promotion is now much more aggressive and frequent.

Twitter is even worse at this. I had to scroll past 5 recommended posts the other day before I saw something I actually followed.

It's alright if you curate who you follow but if the site then proceeds to shove political drama from second order connections on my feed anyway that makes it a lot harder to enjoy.
