📝Reddit // Immersion Exercise // Subscribing // Part 2
Subscribing to 📝subreddits populates the content of your 📝Front Page and dictates how you experience 📝Reddit. 1] New accounts are automatically subscribed to [r/popular to enable new 📝Redditors to discover the platform's content. [2] Subscribe to an additional twenty subreddits that align with personal and professional interests; topics with which you have relevant passion, insight, perspective, knowledge, etc. to contribute to the dialogue.
Diversify Subscriptions
Creating diversity in your subscriptions will enable you to more clearly see the cultural differences between subreddits—thus developing your ability to adapt when submitting in the future. Search out those which are both both small and large, technical and thoughtful, broad and specific, etc.
Additionally, it's atypical for any 📝Redditor to have a singular point of interest. Since users can see the activity of other users, limiting participation to one niche will convey selfish motives. Containing your activity to a single category (e.g. a marketer who only engages in r/marketing, r/advertising, etc.) will more quickly be flagged, banned, attacked, etc. like white blood cells attacking a virus.
For example, while I've developed klout on r/marketing, r/startups, and r/entrepreneur; I'm most active on /r/motorcycles, /r/Tinder, /r/aww, /r/gifs /r/food, and /r/mildlyinteresting.
Cultivate Ethos
Browse RedditList for communities that align with various facets of your character—your interests, experiences, projects, etc. Seek out communities that represent a specific part of you. You can also use 📝#Reddit: Advanced Search to find mentions of celebrities you follow religiously, cult products you love, etc. to find where your different tribes congregate.
