View submission: Safety update on Reddit’s follow feature

So "befriending" someone is exactly the same as "following" them except they are not notified (which you can opt out of regarding followers already). You still get all your posts and comments scrutinized by literal nazis, not knowing that that's happening is somehow even worse.

Protip: when you post something publicly for the world to read, your writings may be "scrutinized" even by people you may disagree with.

I hope this is helpful in planning your future actions.
