View submission: Experimental reddit change: subreddits may now opt-out of /r/all
It should be noted that this change is an opt-out, at the decision of the moderators. Most mods want more traffic, and want to have users discover their subreddit, and as such they'll remain in /r/all.
There are some subreddits which want to opt-out of such discovery options, and we saw no major reason to prevent them from doing so. The communities which have opted-out have welcomed it. There are some cases, like /r/games, where the community actively welcomes not having a firehose of outsiders. There are other communities where such a firehose can be actively damaging, like SuicideWatch.
There's nothing here!
