Most of this can be easily solved with one simple move.

Profile Icon -> Settings -> Preferences -> Experience -> Default to old Reddit -> turn on

  • No ads in comments
  • No upvote notifications
  • No metrics
  • I thought they removed awards entirely

Only thing it doesn't help with is the bot problem. I'm just assuming that everyone with a default username who hides their history is a bot, and anyone who hides their history in general isn't worth my time. I still run into bots over there way too often though.

Edit: main disadvantage of doing this is that they removed private messages from Old Reddit.
