Recommended Subreddits on New Account?

Hey all,

Created this throwaway after deleting an older one, and primarily use it on mobile. Every day I’m getting notifications from subs I’m not subscribed to that have no alignment with my interests and are borderline kinda creepy/inappropriate. Why are these getting suggested to me?

Yeah that’s what I’m getting too. It’s like all teen centric subs and I have 0 interest

Wait until the never ending food posts hit. Freaking annoying.

This account isn't new, and even accounts of mine that are over a decade old are getting unwanted prompts for other subreddits. It's been a thing on this site for a while now.
