Custom Feed

You can organise lists of your followed subreddits into Custom Feeds[1]. You can keep your custom feeds private for your own use, or make them public to share. Formerly known as “Multireddits”, and you might still see some people use that name. This is more than just a list of your followed subreddits and you’ll find more details here of what they are and do[2].

We have a custom feed of our [no-to-low karma friendly subreddits, which you can join here[3].

I use the official Reddit app on mobile iOS but I’m given to believe the desktop version is much the same. Here’s an illustrated guide to creating a custom feed[4].

On mobile, Open the three bar menu on the top left[5] and the “Your Communities” menu will drop down. Scroll all the way to the bottom of the community list and it should say Custom Feeds[6]. Click this to give you the list of your existing feeds and the option to create a new one[7] and just follow the prompts.

Go to the front page of the subreddit you want to add. Look for the three dots “hamburger” menu[8] on the top right hand side, and one of the options should be "Add To Custom Feed". This will give you a list of your existing Custom Feeds or prompt you to make a new one. On desktop or browser, you can do this by pressing the “hamburger” menu on the About Community[9] tab.

Open the three bar menu[10] on the top left and the “Your Communities” menu will drop down. Scroll all the way to the bottom of the community list and it should say Custom Feeds[11]. It’s the same on mobile[12].

You can bump your Custom Feeds to nearer the top of the list by pressing the star next to it. This turns it into a “Favorite” and “Custom Feeds” will now appear at or near the top of the “Your Communities” menu. Optionally - but a more long-winded way that I haven’t tried - you could apparently “Unfavorite” and “Refavorite” any other community on the list so it brings Custom Feeds to the very top. As I say, I haven’t tried this so I can’t say for sure that this’ll work.

 

If the custom feed was created by someone else, click on it as if you were going to browse it, then you can unfollow it[13] from its “Hamburger” menu.

To delete a custom feed you made, click on it as if you were going to browse it, then you can delete it[14]. You will still be Joined (if you were) to the subreddits that were part of that feed.

To delete a sub from your custom feed, on mobile there are two options on the top of the page: “Posts” and “Communities”. Clicking Communities gives a list of the subs within that feed and on the right will say “Edit” which will bring up a list of dustbin icons on the right[15]. Click those to remove one or more subs from your feed.

I don’t think there’s a way of deleting a sub from a custom feed that you follow.

You can share or join custom feeds at r/multihub. A sleepy sub that needs revising is r/customfeeds.
