I Tried Reddit Again and it Sucks Now
I installed the official Reddit app and went on it to see what the old place was looking like now. My inbox was filled with spam. The "home feed" shows subs I never subscribed to. There are so many ads. Between the ads and the the extra subs in the feed, it's hard to just scroll. I also noted a lot of spam in some of the subs. Maybe they are subs with no mods? I'm not sure what's up with that.

I don't think I've ever experienced any spam ever in my Reddit inbox in the 14 years I've been on it. What sort of stuff do you get?
Not the guy, but a fun little side story about my reddit account is that probably multiple years ago someone tagged my username in a cryptocurrency sub or thread or something and then deleted the area I was tagged in which left me with a notification I was unable to clear or even view afterwards.
Something similar to this happened to me. Saved a comment in a sub that I no longer care for, but the comment was deleted or removed later. Now my saved feed has a blank comment from a deleted username but it's still linked to that sub. Cannot unsave it.
I got more spam Feb-June of this year on Reddit that I did in the previous 15 years. It was almost 100% only fans spam accounts too.
You're probably using old Reddit, aren't you? The difference between old Reddit and new Reddit and the Reddit app are night and day in terms of spam.

Correct, I'm not an imbecile!
The Reddit app is genuinely awful. When I saw people saying it was bad I figured they might have been exaggerating, but no, it's terrible.
