The nice thing about Reddit is that content is strongly encouraged to group into subreddits making it easy to filter. My only problem is the opt-in model. I'd rather it be an opt-out model, show me r/all minus the blacklisted subreddits. They added a filter to r/all recently but it is limited to only 100 subreddits and is a pain to manage on mobile. So I wrote a script that periodically signs in as me and hides posts from subreddits I've blacklisted. It was initially getting the list from a google sheet but I've recently done something smarter. I have the script auto-subscribe to all new subreddits it sees on the front page and then monitor whether I stay subscribed. If it notices that I manually unsubscribed from a subreddit it takes that as a sign to blacklist that subreddit. It works amazingly.

Could you share the source on that? I'm removing Reddit from many aspects of life but still like several subs but an overwhelmed and don't need all.
