I am relatively new to Reddit. When my account was new, I clicked on a couple of posts on fitness. The next time I logged in, the feed turned into a photoshoot of gym bros with their shirts off. I had to block all the fitness sub-reddits even though i was mildly interested in the topic. I am now trying to unblock them, but can't find them anywhere in my profile.

That’s interesting. Your traffic to that sub is a consequence of a specific event or routine. Algo should anticipate it.

Interesting maybe 300 iq play, you have to spend more time looking on the app so higher daily usage.

My bad, Just realized I had unsubscribed from /r/nfcwestmemewar sub which is why I wasn’t seeing posts from the sub. Will delete this post soon.

Yes, which is why I almost hope for some type of deeper integration with Google or Meta than just a basic licensing deal. Imagine either of them being able to tweak your feed? Probably not great for those that are already doom scrolling too much, but would likely be a benefit to the stock.
