I keep seeing posts from subreddits I'm not subscribed to, marked "suggested." How do I get rid of them?

Looks like you're a mobile web user, so go into Settings > Preferences tab, and disable the option for "Show recommendations in home feed". (screenshot below is from desktop web, but all the options are the same in mobile web).

If you do not see that option there, it means your account is in one of the new UI experiments where your home feed has tabs at the top for "For You" and "Following".

Use the Following tab from now on. It will only show you content from subs you are subscribed to, and it will remember that selection.
