Step 1- Remove all image subreddits

Step 2- Remove all default subreddits

Step 3- Subscribe to small subreddits and heavily modded ones like /r/askscience

Step 4- Don't venture outside your walled garden unless you want to jerk off

You are now subscribed to 8 subreddits and reddit is almost a sane place.

This seems like a good place to suggest some subreddits that I enjoy:

/r/AskSocialScience

/r/OutOfTheLoop

/r/BreakingDad (Private, for dads only)

/r/changemyview

This really is the way to do it. I subscribe to small enough/few enough subreddits that I actually see every single link posted to them (I know because I hide them all after I view them, and run out quite often). And most of them are things I'm actually interested in hearing about.

If I want to relax and just read a bunch of easily consumable content, I go to /r/all.

This is what I did a few times but I ended up giving up when they kept making the subs I actually liked defaults.
