Mobile/App iOS For You / Following
I don’t want this feature but I can’t turn it off. The default is for you and it’s offering me F1 sub Reddit’s which are spoilers and just force me to not use reddit. Give me the ability to shut off this “feature”

There was an admit post about this:
There is an experiment on the home feed where you will see a "For You" and a "Following" tab. (Hold on! Keep reading! lol) The For You feed has subreddit recommendations. The Following feed is just your subscriptions. When this experiment was run before, it did not remember your selection. But thanks to all of the constructive feedback that was left in these Recaps that was shared with the team in charge, this version remembers your selection! Set it and forget it! Thank you to everyone who took the time to yell at me leave feedback. The team listened! You were heard! Thank you.
• If you are in the For You/Following experiment, the For You feed will not have a sort option. The Following feed will have Best and New. Some of you have left feedback that you want the Hot feed to return and I have shared that feedback with the team and they are looking into that.

if you select "following", it's supposed to save your selection so you don't have to do it again.
this UI is an experiment. you cannot disable it, however it will likely end in around 4-6 weeks.
feel free to leave constructive feedback about it by commenting on the latest weekly recap pinned at the top of this sub.
