I had to stop going to any thing political related on reddit, between russian trolls and hyper-liberals downvoting reasonable opinions it got to be to much.

I installed the Reddit Enhancement Suite plugin to hide /r/politics and /r/the_donald from my home page. If I do read something political on there its from /r/NeutralPolitics which requires anything you post to be cited with evidence.

For everything else reddit is great. I don't even use Facebook anymore because it became too political on there. If I want politics I'll watch PBS News Hour or go to a news site.

Why are they showing up on your home page at all? Are you subbed to them?

[stevewillows]

they're most likely in /r/all. Reddit now has filters for subs that will show up in that feed, which handy.

It would show up in all. I won't no part of the hyper-liberal echo chamber or the national-populist cesspool.

why go to r/all/ at all? Maybe we just use reddit differently but I only read the subreddits I'm subbed to, so I never see stuff from r/politics or r/TheDonald
