Reddit's algorithm sucks so. Fucking. Hard (lemmy.ml)

I'm an amateur musician and music producer for some obscure genres. I made a Reddit account just for some specific musical subreddits that either aren't present on Lemmy or aren't active enough to be useful.

Instead, my feed is just total trash subreddits that I didn't ask for, because "people in my area" subscribe to them.

Exactly, it's unbearable. I checked in on there today for some updates on stuff I used to follow and man, they're miserable. Everyone is harshing each other, dispirited, untrusting.

Who ever asked what people near me follow, anyway? That's what YikYak was for, and that shit sucked.

Yik yak was hilarious. But it's no mystery why it's gone, the security risks were apparent on day 1.
