along with the strong censoring that has occurred on reddit throughout the years, they have now removed r/all from the app and while using a desktop/laptop browser. instead of being able to stumble upon new subreddits you never knew existed, it wants to curate what you're allowed to see

Intention driven media consumption is getting killed everywhere.

YouTube hides your subscriptions from you, the public broadcasting institutions from my country recently netflixified the experience (they try to tell you what you want to watch).

It's so stupid.

I had to revive RSS for myself to overcome this. My feed, my decisions!

    Perhaps they're referring to how YT will overwhelm the Home feed with tons of suggested crap and a few videos from your subscribed channels, instead of the other way around. You can click over to a subscription-only feed, but it's not the default.

    Hmm... Fair enough, I wouldn't know because I have history turned off so I don't get a Home feed, I only use the Subscriptions view. That being said - wasn't the Home feed always supposed to be mostly for discovery?
