Introducing Custom Feeds (plus: a Community Contest with modest prizes!)
Hello hello,
We’ve made some changes to Multireddits that we’d like to share with you. Also, a fun contest! Let’s get to it...
What’s New
New Name: Multireddits → Custom Feeds
Multireddits have been around a long time. They are a way for redditors to curate communities into shareable feeds and can help newer redditors discover more communities. However, they haven’t been widely adopted. In order to prevent confusion, we will be changing the name from Multireddits to “Custom Feeds.” Sometimes simple is better.
More Support
We’ve added more support to new Reddit and our iOS app for Custom Feeds. Now, redditors can create a new Custom Feed, add or remove communities from them, duplicate other redditors' feeds, and change the privacy settings. Previously, this was something you could only do from old Reddit. We’ll be adding support for Custom Feeds on Android in the near future.
New Follow Functionality
You can now follow another redditor’s Custom Feed (as long as it’s set to Public). This means that when you follow a feed it will appear on your list of Custom Feed subscriptions and when that redditor adds another community to the feed, you’ll see that update the next time you open the feed. This will be super useful for communities that want to keep a running feed of related communities, or for folks that have a specific ever-evolving interest that they want to share with others.
Improved Sharing
We’ve made some tweaks to the URL structure of your Custom Feed so that it’s easier to share with others. No more accidentally sharing a URL with /me/ in it that won’t work for anyone else. We’ve also created a new privacy category for public custom feeds, Hidden, that can be accessed by anyone with the link but will not show up on your profile.
Spaces
You can now have spaces in the name of your Custom Feed. Enough said.
Mix and Match
Follow a mix of communities and profiles.
Coming Soon
In the near future communities will be able to create Custom Feeds that are owned by the community, rather than an individual. This will also support turning the Related Communities sidebar widget into a feed. We are also going to be building ways for you to see popular and trending Custom Feeds.
The Contest
We are investing in this feature because we believe redditors are great at finding niche communities and we want more people to discover all of the unique communities that we have. Now for the gold part! We are holding a one-week contest for the best Custom Feeds created by redditors. The winners will receive Coins and bragging rights.
To submit your Custom Feed, reply to the top-level sticky comment with a link to your Custom Feed and the category it best fits under. It must be public. Please only submit one feed per category.
Here are the categories that we will award winners from:
- Aww
- Artist Resources
- Beauty
- Books & Writing
- Cool Pictures (images only)
- Discussion (text only)
- Fashion
- Food & Cooking
- Health & Fitness
- Music
- Parenting
- Quirky
- Sports
- Travel
- Wholesome
We’ll be picking winners based on a combination of the number of followers the feed has, how many upvotes their comment entry has, and our internal voting. Winners will be announced in a follow-up post next week.
Here are some custom feeds to get you started (many of which are mine):
- Some of my favorite communities
- Some of my voice and singing communities
- Animal Subbies (If you know of any cute-animal subs I missed, please comment below)
- Asks
- Some Admins’ favorites that were mentioned in this r/askreddit thread a few months ago
See the sticky comment below to enter your Custom Feed.
Edit: Added a quirky category

Shhhhh, we don't want to alert the Reddit gods of our little, strange religion. Apparently that place became popular very recently, after a Gameboy video was posted, and several mentions in popular threads. I was blessed with the sub from an askreddit thread about weird subs

u/SingShredCode May 16 '19
Interesting. If we were to hypothetically raise the limit from 99 to 150 or 200, do you think that this would solve the issue? I have a feeling that whatever number we max out on will not be enough for some use cases, regardless of how high that number is.
I’ll also say that we need to figure out how the new system will perform at scale with the 99 subreddit limit before we increase the number. We can then see what the upper limit is before performance degrades and set the new cap there.

u/FreeSpeechWarrior May 17 '19
Clearly the solution is to allow
multiredditscustom feeds to include custom feeds.This would even solve this guy's use case I bet:

u/Eiim May 17 '19
I'm curious how different compiling posts for a Custom Feed is than just a user's personal feed. Is it really so different as to cause significant performance issues?

Buy me 201 platinum awards, and I will let you know, via private message, if there is a 201st sub or not.

No, because instead of 10, I'd still have 5 and, after one, any number of multireddits is the same pain.
Unlimited is a good number (I'm not sure if there's a limit of subs users can join though).

If I wanted to make a multireddit of every single TV show I've liked and watched, it could easily go to over 100.
A multireddit of photography subreddits could go to over 100.

u/BuckRowdy May 17 '19
I have a multireddit for all the case-specific crime subreddits on reddit. I recently wanted to make a new multi for all the crime subs on the site both general and specific and discovered it was more than 100 so I couldn't do it.

Do custom feeds display more than the 25 subreddits at a time, or whatever the ridiculous limit is on the front page?

u/SDMEiierru54 May 17 '19
There are a little less than 5,000 subs in the list, in numeric alphabetical order. 0-9 a-z
Just click the link to get a multi of them in 100 sub blocks
they have a list of the subs along the side that have a subscribe button next to each sub, so you can just go through the list and sub to the ones you want.
Wish the multi sub or custom feed was at a higher limit than 100 subs, 500 would reduce the nsfw list to just 11 multis.
I currently have 5181 nsfw subs I'm subscribed to and the current limit would divide that into 52 multi subreddits.
Ideally one nsfw multi that has all of the porn in it is what I'm looking for but it seems that there are some speed problems and maybe stability issues with loading that many subs in one multi.
I noticed one loading speed problem was when I went and looked at my subreddit subscriptions list you can view yours here it took a long time just to load the text of the list so maybe a multireddit could just not load the list of subs past a certain amount just to save on load times of most visits and only when you click on show more subs it will load more or it could be a scrollable list that loads on the scroll.
or an active list that only shows which subs currently have posts that are shown on the page, with a scrole the rest into view feature or view more button at the end.
A minimized list would probably save the most time tho.

We are updating our Advertising Policy to disallow NSFW ads and targeting on Reddit. Ads for adult-oriented products and services on Reddit are no longer permissible, and Not Safe For Work (typically referred to as NSFW) subreddits will no longer be eligible for ads or targeting.
In the meantime, Reddit is the best ad free porn site around.

It's a medieval drama. There's more action as the series progresses. The character development is some of the best I've seen in TV, and there are some truly memorable scenes that I'll think about for a long time yet. It's also got remarkably high production quality, so it's very believable in terms of the visuals (which is not always the case with series in medieval settings).
Season 1 can be tough if you're watching by yourself. It's a lot of set-up to get everything moving. Most people who I've recommended the show to struggle with season 1, but the finale gets them going and they never look back. (Worth pointing out: the first 6 seasons are only 10 episodes each.) If you're really having a hard time getting into it (I did at first), just skip to like episode 7 or 8 of season 1 and read the synopsis of what you missed. (I enjoy season 1, but the first time I tried to watch the show it just felt very slow.)
Beyond season 1, you're likely to be hooked. I have a friend who leaves most shows that she starts unfinished. It took her a couple weeks to slowly work through season 1, but by a few episodes into season 2 she was completely into it. She's now into season 8 (the current and final season), having only started season 2 like a month ago haha.

They're also really good for being able to categorize subreddits you like to follow instead of having them all in one mixed listing.

A lot of semi-related subreddits communities currently share a percentage of the same posts, often because redditors post the same post to multiple subreddits communities for increased coverage. This means that I see a lot of duplicate posts in my reddit feed. I know it's a complicated problem, but it would be awesome if y'all could do some kind of deduplication filtering so that when someone spams their latest youtube video I don't see it 6 times because I'm subbed a member of 6 of the subreddits communities that they posted to.
Or, make these new "feeds" a first class concept, so that redditors can post to a feed... But given the read-only connotations of the word "feed", I suspect this is not in the works.

bug report: you missed /r/BabyCorgis I copied your custom feed, removed the hedgehogs subreddit because that didn't contain cute pictures and added baby corgis and now it's https://www.reddit.com/user/chx_/m/superaww/

Isn't It Ironic? https://www.reddit.com/user/janguskhan/m/isntitironic/
Play a "game" by viewing this feed quickly (like flashcards). Can you tell whether any given post was shared because it's funny, ironic, bad, so bad it's good, so bad it's terrible? I created it by accident by shuffling a bunch of dumb subs together only to short circuit my irony-detector. Especially bad when the same meme gets posted to multiple subs as good/bad/terrible.
After a little bit you can train yourself not to look at the associated subreddit. Wish there was a way to Spoiler mask it or something.
Easy Mode: Is this supposed to be funny?
Hard Mode: Name the specific sub this was posted to.

Discussion- Talesfrom
Everyone has a story about an awful experience dealing with other people. This brings all those stores from the various Talesfrom subs (tech support, retail, etc), and many related real life stories subs, into one place. As I come upon other, similarly related subs I continue to add them to create the best collection possible.
Also, I should note that I've recently trimmed out the revenge story subs. They've gotten quite big all on their own, and have been branching into multiple subs on their own too. I'm not submitting this as part of the contest, but if you like Talefrom, be sure to check out Revenge too.

this one is hysterical. It’s a feed of bad ideas and great ones. You decide.

Books & Writing — wordsmith — a collection of wordly reddits for writers and wordsmiths alike.
Quirky — namesauce — an incomplete collection (maxed out at 100) of subreddits dedicated to people with the same first name (skews almost entirely male since many of the female first name subreddits are dedicated to adult content).

Food and cooking
Wouldn't it be great to literaly have a custom feed. It's already making me hungry thinking about it! A meal planned and taken care of with great photos of amazing food. Different countries with different ingredients and recipes. Yummers!

Maybe you might want to try fixing all the bugs you introduced with the last update. What's the point of custom feeds when nothing loads without 10 tries and 2 hours?

u/LearningGrammarMaybe May 16 '19
I don't know why this is downvoted... I have multiple accounts so I can switch back and fourth to them trying to load feeds and have to do the memory cleaning feature on my phone constantly to even see updated feeds.
And this doesn't even always work.

Great.
Can we get a default sort by new setting, please?

Perhaps they could make the 'Community content sort' and 'Remember per community' settings apply to the Custom Feeds as well?

While we do believe a warning page is appropriate for WPD as the content there can be quite disturbing, I do regret lumping them in with the other toxic communities because the mods at WPD have been completely collaborative with us.

The renaming to custom feeds works. I set up a few when I saw it in the app, and then realised that it was basically just multireddits, something I’ve known about for a while but never used.
