I've been using "new" reddit for a while and have been pretty apathetic towards most of the changes but this is the first one that I actively hate. I'm subscribed to the subreddits that I am subscribed to and not the other subreddits for a reason. I don't want that junk in my feed.

I am really hoping they dial this back. The most ridiculous one for me is the “popular on Reddit” right now type suggestion….. like I literally have a popular tab I could go to if I wanted that. I am on my subscription feed so I want to see my subreddits. It’s crazy to me to force popular popular posts into my feed when there is an entire UI to handle popular posts.

I am at the point now where probably 30-40% of the content in my feed isn’t what I am subscribed to and it’s driving me crazy.

Is there a way to deactivate it in the settings? An extension maybe?

EDIT: I've deactivated this setting: "Enable home feed recommendations". Hopefully that works.
