that right there is the biggest reason I never swapped to the new reddit redesign. Looks and aesthetics are one thing, but constantly having fake notifications about "you may like this post" or "you may like this community" shoved into my feed with the same notification icon as an actual reply to a post kept getting on my nerves.

Yes that's it. It feels sort of manipulative.
