Maybe the concept of default subs is the mistake?
It might be better to ask users a series of questions about their interests when they sign up, and then create each one a personalized list

You make "main promoted content" sound more important than it really is. The front page is just one page. It could default to being blank.
Global curation could help reddit, but the site actually needs very little of it. It can survive without main promoted content at all.
But isn't that really a huge indictment of their ability to run the site? If the users who really like the site I'll do it by avoiding the horridness of the main promoted content, doesn't that signal some sort of failure in their curation or moderation?

How does a site like that survive long-term?
