Without an account I'd have to see all the default subreddits. I'd rather bludgeon myself to death with a baseball.

[–]ZEFninja 211 points212 points ago

This morning I was like "why does reddit suck so bad today?". Then I logged in.

[–]keytud 304 points305 points ago

Goodbye /r/atheism, goodbye /r/politics, goodbye /r/adviceanimals.

It's like leaving a crowded Chuck E Cheese for a private smoking room with a plush velvet chair and fireplace.

[–]dellwho 208 points209 points ago

/r/atheism is the reason i set up an account, so i could get that shit off the fp.

[–]manieldanning 102 points103 points ago

Most of my Redditor friends who are atheist have unsubscribed from /r/atheism. I thought there'd be a little bit less assholery on the secular side, guess not.

[–]haveatya 96 points97 points ago

Assholery doesn't discriminate based on religious beliefs.

[–]the_satch 80 points81 points ago

I'm an atheist, also unsubbed from r/atheism. It's a giant circlejerk of pompous hypocrites.

[–][deleted] 25 points26 points ago

Same here. It's a shame, really.

[–]Operation_mongoose 7 points8 points ago

What about r/circlejerk?

[–]mmine1 8 points9 points ago

It's a nice reddit parody.

[–]FaxGob 0 points1 point ago

I finally unsubbed yesterday. My angry atheist phase is over. Now I just don't give a shit what other people believe.

[–]ohlordnotthisagain 57 points58 points ago

Right? And they can't even blame a deity for what contemptible douchebags they are.

[–]why_not_agnosticism 8 points9 points ago

Eh, zealots are zealots, regardless of what they believe in.

Well once you research charge they are chargelots.

A perfect summery breeze.

[–]Irishbread 1 point2 points ago

I have spent the last 10 years of my life trying to discover what that song was, haven't heard it since I was a kid and pleasantly windblown now at how great it is.

[–]cannontrodder 5 points6 points ago

I unsubscribed too but like to pop back in every now and then out of morbid curiosity to see if they are still the same circlejerky idiots. They always are!

[–]KingNick 12 points13 points ago

Indeed. Also, unsubbing from F7U12 was a truly amazing feeling. It felt as though I was actually deleting the Facebook High School Drama from my Reddit :) feels good, man

[–]Spo8 7 points8 points ago

I'm an atheist and browsing /r/atheism is like being in a room full of high schoolers. "GUYS, ISN'T IT REALLY GREAT HOW SMART WE ARE. ALL THE OTHER PEOPLE ARE SO STUPID RIGHT GUYS?"

[–]mellett68 2 points3 points ago

I unsubbed too, so cringeworthy. I'd wondered why Atheism was getting such a bad rep recently too, it's shit like this.

[–]Ace4929 5 points6 points ago

As much as I hate /r/atheism, i do understand why it is as it is. Think about it - there is only so many ways that you can say "i do not believe in a superhuman being or force that governs life" before the community either dies or becomes militant about their disbelief. Unfortunately, they have chosen the militant route, and have becomes an intolerant POS that makes my stomach churn at the thought

[–]tacobellassasin 1 point2 points ago

tell them to try r/trueatheism

[–]sullythered 2 points3 points ago

Yeah, I'm an atheist, and I unsubscribed from /r/atheism. It's just annoying.

[–]finvek 1 point2 points ago

Atheists on reddit... i don't understand why they're so bad but they are just almost as unreasonable as hardcore standard theists.

[–]NixonsKondom 1 point2 points ago

There was a post awhile back explaining one theory as to why r/atheism is full of assholes. It basically came down to having to hide your thoughts and disagreements with theists in real life, while being able to release that stress somewhere with people that agree with you. That place is r/atheism. Coming off as an asshole is kind of hard to avoid sometimes. Just my/that other guy's thoughts.

[–]Eist 38 points39 points ago*

I have no idea why it is one of the 10 20 default sub-reddits. It doesn't make any sense.

[–][deleted] ago

[deleted]

[–]bewmar 21 points22 points ago

It is a default sub because it has one of the highest number of subscribers.

[–]LETSseeWHATweGOThere 20 points21 points ago

It's a conspiracy bro! Because it is a default sub, it has one of the highest number of subscribers! It's too big to fail bro!

[–][deleted] 9 points10 points ago

Bro br o o bro br bro bro bro

[–]Right_on_BRO 4 points5 points ago

Right on

[–]Eist 1 point2 points ago

No, it has one of the highest number of subscribers because you are subscribed to it automatically when you sign up. You physically have to remove yourself from it. The list is here.

Anyway, as an aside, why are there default sub-reddits anyway?

[–]bewmar 14 points15 points ago

No, it has one of the highest number of subscribers because

It became a default sub due to the number of subscribers it had. It continues to grow partly due to its increased exposure from becoming a default sub. Nothing I said was incorrect.

Anyway, as an aside, why are there default sub-reddits anyway?

There are default subs because reddit is made up of subreddits. If there were no default subs, you would be greeted by a blank page.

[–]Eist 3 points4 points ago

Yea, I looked in to it more, and it seems that it is indeed a popularity contest.

I could remove every subscription I have, though, and still get /r/all level submissions. Then, when I add the ones I like and "remove" r/atheism, then it would be more tailored to my desires without the need for the default sub-reddits.

Sigh, anyway...

[–][deleted] 38 points39 points ago

Seriously. Damn you reddit for forcing your religious beliefs on me.

[–]Wonderful_Life 1 point2 points ago

Seriously. Damn you reddit for forcing any religious beliefs off me.

FTFY

[–]why_not_agnosticism 4 points5 points ago

I feel relatively sure think they keep it on the defaults as a signup incentive. Also a nice incentive for RES.

[–]Eurospective 7 points8 points ago

You know what? Fuck this, unsubbing now.

[–]gapball 14 points15 points ago

Seriously. I'm an atheist but I'm not going to walk around shoving people's faces in my beliefs and kicking anybody down that doesn't agree with me. I mean that's one of the main things /r/atheism hates about Christians and yet they do it ten thousand times as much as they do? Why? Why do people have to try and make other people feel stupid about their beliefs? People are comfortable in their beliefs. Don't fucking argue with somebody about it, respect it. It should only be about respect and not about taunting and flaunting. Fuck.

[–]jackbirkby 11 points12 points ago

I wouldn't mind being subscribed to that subreddit, if the people there acted like you or any of the Atheists I know - most, if not all of the Atheists I know are the most level headed people in my friendship group. I can have a civilised conversation with them about religion and we can end up still disagreeing but having a greater understanding of what the other side thinks, and are better off for it.

Try repeating any of what you said to /r/Atheism, and most of them will give you 100 reasons why their belief is superior to everyone else's and why religions are flawed.

It's a shame that while society accepts that you can't judge a race based on the actions of some within it, and that not all Muslims are terrorists, it treats Christians (and I'm not singling us out here, I just can't speak for other faiths) all as Evangelical delusionists, bent on forcing their religion on other people.

[–]gapball 6 points7 points ago

They act like every church is Westboro Baptist Church and it is nowhere close to that. There are tolerant people in every belief. Not all Monotheists are gay-bashers and they sure as hell don't tell everybody why they are going to hell. Plus, if /r/atheism doesn't like being told they are going to hell, then maybe they shouldn't consistently bash religion and call Christians stupid because that's basically the same thing.

[–]DogRapistPANDA 0 points1 point ago

I find this to be false. I see "I wish more Christians were like this" posts on rAtheism all the time. From what I've seen, praise is almost always given to reasonable Christians/Muslims/etc.

[–]gapball 1 point2 points ago

I see those posts too, but they are wayyyy far in the minority.

[–]Mcgyvr 1 point2 points ago

Stop ruining their /r/atheism sucks circlejerk!

[–]dellwho 13 points14 points ago

do you remember that dick posting about how people were giving him shit for wearing a hat with Atheist on it? What the fuck? Who wears that hat??

[–]dudemello 4 points5 points ago

Perhaps it's a case of people using /r/atheism as a means of venting their frustrations towards certain aspects of religion and it's followers, which I completely understand, some things just rub you the wrong way, and you're going to want to vent about it, and if people are going to do that one way or the other, wouldn't you rather them do it within their own subreddit, that way if you don't like what's being said at least you have the the option to unsubscribe? I'm thinkin the sub is just too vague, maybe we need /r/angryatheist and /r/calmatheist so people can express their beliefs with similar company.

[–]Persdear 60 points61 points ago

/r/aww, don't forget about /r/aww. "Hey look a cat just being a cat, give me karma please."

[–]brkello 15 points16 points ago

I go to /r/aww every morning...find a cute picture of a kitten and send it to my girl friend....she loves it and all her friends are jealous that she has found a guy who sends her cute things like that. Don't knock it....and how the heck can you not like cute animals?

[–]Persdear 6 points7 points ago

The same way that some people love gore and others don't.

[–]Duff69 2 points3 points ago

Ummm....

[–]Persdear 2 points3 points ago*

What? Ever wonder why movies like saw have been so successful? Not my cup of tea, but you should know that people don't have unified opinions.

[–]Duff69 1 point2 points ago

I know but...comparing cute animals to gore...I don't know man, it just doesn't seem right.

[–]bacon_cake 1 point2 points ago

This is EXACTLY why I browse /r/aww, damn it comes in handy.

[–]DystopiaX 12 points13 points ago

It's that, but I like cats. So I don't really mind.

[–]manieldanning 2 points3 points ago

[–]HORSEtheGAME 34 points35 points ago

But they're SO CUTE!

[–]Persdear 9 points10 points ago

[–]railroad-redditor 10 points11 points ago*

I want to find whomever made the decision to make /r/aww and /r/adviceanimals default and smack the shit out of them.

EDIT: Despite the automatic nature of default subreddits, the admins still approve or disapprove them. They also bypass the automated process with some subreddits (r/atheism and r/askscience come to mind).

[–]barashkukor 8 points9 points ago

No one decided to make them default; the default subreddits are automatically generated by activity and subscribers. So why not start lining up 80% of reddit.

[–]chetter44 12 points13 points ago

Deal.

[–]railroad-redditor 3 points4 points ago

Default subreddits are most definitely chosen. There may be an automatic process, but they are still approved, which is a choice.

/r/askscience was chosen to be default, it wasn't automatic. /r/atheism was chosen to be non-default, and then re-chosen to be default again. These were very protracted moves by the admins, default subreddits are not completely automatic.

[–]railroad-redditor 3 points4 points ago

So why not start lining up 80% of reddit.

I didn't realize that was an option. Let's do it!

[–]a4moondoggy 1 point2 points ago

i look at their cat...but leave no karma. well...unless it's particularly cute.

[–][deleted] 4 points5 points ago

i wish i could just do that, but im stuck to /all by habit, i dont kno what to subscribe to and worry ill miss stuff.

[–]Right_on_BRO 2 points3 points ago

Exactly what I was thinking. I know that feel, bro.

[–]theKinkajou 4 points5 points ago

That room is for Chuck E Cheese Platinum members only!

[–]Immynimmy 18 points19 points ago

Might as well add /r/funny and possibly /r/pics.

[–]HatesLoggingIn 6 points7 points ago

You don't need an account to personalize your reddit experience. Just build and bookmark a url of the things you like.

For example, here is the default version of reddit with no atheism and no politics.

[–]Quits_reddit_Daily 26 points27 points ago

Wait a fucking second.

You're commenting on an /r/funny link saying that you should unsubscribe from /r/funny?

ARE YOU A FUCKING HYPOCRITE? THE ANSWER IS YES, YOU ARE A FUCKING HYPOCRITE. EVERYONE ON REDDIT IS A FUCKING HYPOCRITE.

I AM TIRED OF ALL THIS FUCKING HYPOCRISY ON THIS FUCKING WEBSITE. I QUIT.

[–]arbitration_man 1 point2 points ago

Before I made an account, I learned to just use /r/pics as my main bookmark and just went from there.

[–]dirk_b 5 points6 points ago

Goodbye /r/worldnews.

[–]NullSleepN64 27 points28 points ago

I saw default Reddit for the first time in what must've been a year. They've added a lot of default subreddits since I made my account (2yr club). I'm amazed at how much things have changed around here in such a small time.

I don't understand why atheism is a default reddit either, I'm an atheist but it just seems like such a strange thing to have dominating the front page along with pictures of animals.

[–]greggg230 13 points14 points ago

Isn't the top 20 determined solely by subscriptions or viewers or something?

[–]stryder3323 26 points27 points ago

It is. The default subreddits are the 20 with the highest subscribers. The issue then, is that since people are put them in by default, the top 20 when that was instated, will be the top 20 for forever. Most likely, anyway.

[–]Right_on_BRO 1 point2 points ago

So when you see a default subreddit change their page image to show how many subscribers they have, it's really just how many accounts were made? So these bragging subreddits are a bunch of asshats then.

[–]stryder3323 1 point2 points ago

No, there is a disparity between the top 20. The reason it's an issue is that people don't often unsubscribe from the subreddits, so the top 20 have a lot more traffic and are much better known. You can easily unsubscribe, but most don't.

[–]DanielM4713 1 point2 points ago

I thought it was just purely upvote determined.

[–]NullSleepN64 1 point2 points ago

That would explain it, makes sense now. I do however find that I must be becoming more out of touch with the general hive mind.

[–]lonesoldier4789 13 points14 points ago

What's funny is /r/funny is one of the worst default subreddits

[–]Cheddarwurst 2 points3 points ago

I'd rather bludgeon myself to death with a haddock.

[–]kihadat 2 points3 points ago

There needs to be an account where you can unsubscribe from subreddits and are not allowed to post. Peaceful times ahead.

[–]RugerRedhawk 2 points3 points ago

Yeah, I don't understand this submission. It seems like the exact opposite is true.

[–]dalore 4 points5 points ago

Not unless you know about /r/all

[–]a4moondoggy 1 point2 points ago

exactly! sometimes i just start clicking then an atheist post and then another forces me to have to log in.

[–]veni-veni-veni 2 points3 points ago

Or, you could just make a multi-subreddit bookmark. Mentioned here. No need to log-in! I do this when I'm too lazy to log-in.

[–]bronzemedal97 70 points71 points ago

It's exactly the opposite for me. With my account, I have all of the godawful default subreddits weeded out and I can enjoy reading the ones I'm actually interested in.

[–]doctorcrass 35 points36 points ago

meanwhile you're posting in r/funny.

[–]space_monkey_15 9 points10 points ago

/r/funny isn't half as bad as some of the other default subreddits (/r/atheism, /r/politics, /r/adviceanimals)

[–]AwkwardSegue 2 points3 points ago

True, but that isn't saying much.

[–]Maxables 3 points4 points ago

Which ones are you interested in?

[–]_psyFungi 12 points13 points ago

All those nostalgic sporting ones where people come third in the state final back in high school, being the highlight of their life which has since turned into pen-pushing drudgery at a local manufacturer.

[–]HatesLoggingIn 1 point2 points ago*

You don't need an account to do this. You can build a URL simply using a + between each subreddit you like. Like this "reddit.com/r/sub1+sub2+sub3"

To be fair most of the people who angrily descend on other people in reddit are hipsters, neckbeards, stoners or tweens. So don't take it too hard.

[–]wuskin 2 points3 points ago

Stoners on reddit as in Ents from Trees? I'm not sure if we're thinking of the same people.

[–]fuckshitwank 3 points4 points ago

Yeah, take it back fucker! Us stoners are all chill and shit. Start dissing us again and we'll slit your throat.

[–]Timmetie 7 points8 points ago

Seriously? Sometimes I'm accidentally logged out or I visit Reddit from another computer by accident. I really don't get why people would ever visit and I've almost stopped recommending the place without an explanation of how sub Reddits work. Vanilla Reddit is a zoo.

[–]TrialByFireMMA 1 point2 points ago

With the amount of animals on the front page... penguins... cats... lawyer dogs... yes, yes it is a zoo.

[–]CaptainModesty 26 points27 points ago

I firmly believe that there are always hundreds of people lurking in the new comments section ready to drop the first decisive downvote on my dreams everytime I post. I've named them the gatekeepers and I've yet to pass their judgment into the realm of positive karma.

[–][deleted] 17 points18 points ago

Sometimes when I'm bored of the frontpage I'll go to the new section of r/fffffffuuuuuuuuuuuu and just downvote everything.

If this bothers you, you can help by not posting in that godawful subreddit.

[–]ObiWanKodos 1 point2 points ago

I go to /r/spacedicks, look at two posts and then I run away so I'm relieved to be back at my FP. Keeps me level headed.

[–]sgtpppr 1 point2 points ago

You, sir, provide a great service and should be rewarded.

[–]SexualHerAssment 1 point2 points ago

Just wait until you post a well thought out reply to something and you get 30 angry replies to your comment that you've already dealt with like 3-4 times but they refuse to check before replying to you.

[–]Mc_Gibblets 9 points10 points ago

Definitely the other way around. The first time I visited Reddit, I had no clue how to do anything, nothing made sense to me, and I was even slightly frightened. Since I made an account and have personalized my subreddits and installed RES, it's wonderful.

[–]Digipatd 2 points3 points ago

Every user should at least try Reddit Enhancement Suite.

[–]imgursucks 1 point2 points ago

No, because then we get more annoying "I tagged you as..." posts, as if anyone really gives a shit.

I always log in, otherwise I get stuff from wtf when I'm not expecting it. I like my nsfw tags to contain boobs, thanks.

After being just a lurker for a long time...I finally registered a few weeks back. Not sure if good thing or bad thing. Now I want to actually make comments.

That bird in the foreground is NOT pleased to be on camera

[–]cricketman27 1 point2 points ago

Yeah, redditors would attack like that with a repost.

[–]otismuffins 1 point2 points ago

I like r/athiesm

[–]wandering_solo 1 point2 points ago

Yes! Just created an account, everything has changed... Although not my reverence for this site. Or my dislike for cats. I haven't been persuaded YET.

[–]maxjulien 1 point2 points ago

New Redditor here. Nothing more demoralizing than Reddit telling me I can't post anymore because all my posts suck.

[–]godWEENsatan 1 point2 points ago

Its should read:

Reddit while lurking

Reddit while posting

Edit: Changed a word.

[–]T-Waldo 1 point2 points ago

[–]Charmeleon25 1 point2 points ago

I just made an account so I could give upvotes and occasional comments. I haven't had one long enough to be afraid.

[–]Feed_Me_Seymour 1 point2 points ago

For some reason /r/atheism is a default subreddit.

Oh hells no.

[–]moojj 0 points1 point ago

This post actually made me laugh out loud. I'm laying in bed at 4am and you made me snigger.

[–]icertainlyhave 0 points1 point ago

the night before i signed up, i was looking through the subreddits, intending to add the ones i like to google reader, since i had almost no intention of commenting (then again, here i am). then i made an account, thinking "maybe i can make one feed with all of them?" (...btw can you? i tried but it didn't work.)

so i went back to the same list, still sorted by "top" or "most popular" or whatever it is--SO MUCH PORN. i expected the bottom pic on this to be of boobs.

Also, don't make a "newfags can't triforce" reference in r/gaming. They don't like that.

[–]Arya2u 0 points1 point ago

Just for that,I upvoted everybody.

[–]ToBeDetermined 0 points1 point ago

I have never felt so vulnerable.

[–]brandonT 0 points1 point ago

I'm pretty sure this is a re post, but gets an upvote anyway cause it's the first post I saw the first time I went on Reddit

Make an account on Reddit, they said...

[–]lolofthedead001 0 points1 point ago

Why are there so many reposts today?

[–]Slippery_John 0 points1 point ago

I beleive you're forgetting the existence of /r/athiesm, or rather it's position on the default list.

I started on imgur, which was a lovely community full of friendly, caring, supportive individuals who all just wanted to look at pictures of cats, then I came to reddit, where I was shown dead bodies, disturbing fetish pictures, and was downvoted into oblivion for reasons I don't quite understand. I have been transformed from a happy carefree individual to a morbid, cynical redditor. Oh how I yearn for for the days of old, before I created an account.
