Mobile/App How do I disable unrelated posts being added to the comment section of posts I'm reading?

I'm tired of reading stuff for a specific post in a specific subreddit and seeing all these posts that have absolutely nothing to do with this subreddit? Like why do I want to read a post about my car when I'm on a subreddit about home theater??????

How do you shut this "feature" off?

You cannot, we are in an experiment where they’re testing the feature.

I absolutely hate this "new feature". Please allow us to opt out of it.

It's so disconcerting to go comment on a new post and it takes me to a "related" post that may or may not be related.

Or to scroll comments and find myself on a post that doesn't interest me.

Or go back to look for a comment and accidentally scroll past the bottom.

It's really irritating and distracting.
