Reddit is moving on from r/all
Reddit is deprecating r/all, one of its feeds that shows popular posts on the platform, as part of “ongoing efforts to simplify Reddit and improve Home feed personalization.”
Reddit has offered both r/popular and r/all as ways to see trending posts, with r/all being a “less filtered feed” where “sexually explicit posts are filtered out but other popular Not Safe for Work (NSFW) posts are included.” But in January, Reddit said it had removed r/all from its apps as part of an “experiment” and that, as part of a separate experiment, some desktop users wouldn’t see r/all in their sidebar. (The company earlier announced r/all’s removal from its apps in December, but didn’t qualify the change as an experiment at the time.) In February, Reddit said that the experiment had concluded and “the decision was made to remove r/all.”
In update notes published Thursday, Reddit said that the “the final steps to deprecate r/all are being implemented,” and links to r/all now redirect to your Home feed. r/all also doesn’t show up on the Reddit sidebar on the web or in the Reddit iOS app for me.
r/all isn’t totally going away, though; if you use old Reddit, you can still access the feed. And although Reddit CEO Steve Huffman said last year that the company was “moving away from” r/popular in favor of more personalized feeds, Reddit stated Thursday that “trending content remains available via r/popular.” r/popular may still change, though: “as previously shared, we are rethinking parts of the global feed experience, especially for new users, and that may include changes to r/popular over time,” spokesperson Clarissa Colmenero tells The Verge.
Reddit also announced Thursday that it would be launching new default privacy settings for teens. With the changes, which will roll out in “early April,” users under 18 can’t have followers and will have hidden profiles.
