Why are people so focussed on subscriptions anyway? I read here for a long time but I never use the subscription function of reddit...

I don't really know how people survive without subscriptions on Reddit. It allows you to curate your feed, so you aren't inundated with the stupidity of the default subreddit list. Once you have set up your subscriptions (and most importantly your unsubscriptions), Reddit is a completely different experience.

Not the same guy, but I only use subs to pin communities I frequent in for quick access. I've never used the feed nor the default subreddit list. I prefer to just check the subs directly and browse everything from there.

I've not subbed to Singularity nor r/Futurology since I've specially made shortcuts for these 2 on my homepage and didn't need to pin them.
