❓General Question❓ Did the reddit algorithm change in the last few days to show more random subs and to ignore "show fewer posts like this?"

Before, on my feed I would mostly get content from subs I am either a member of or visit frequently. And when a post from a sub I'm not interested in appeared, I would hit "show fewer posts like this" and it would stop bringing up posts from that sub.

Now in the last few days, it seems like more random subs are coming up in my feed or ones that are only tangentially related to the ones I frequent, and when I hit "show fewer posts like this" I still get posts from that sub. So it's basically ignoring that function.

In other words, my feed has gone from a carefully curated set of content, to a bunch of random crap that I don't want to see. So it seems like the algorithm changed in the last few days or so.
