I got a Reddit notification for this post while browsing this post. Time to turn off notifications!
Speaking of notifications, that menu used to be just for comment responses. Nowadays Reddit is using it to push me some “popular” posts I couldn’t care less about.
Same here. I had every notifications toggle switched off but direct messages and I still kept getting “recommended” posts. It’s basically malware at that point lol.
With the 3rd party apps I didn’t get exposed to any of this garbage, but now that I have to use the browser, I can’t avoid the tsunami of anti-user features. Quitting Reddit has never been easier.
