Overview
- Reddit announced the change on Wednesday, Oct. 28, 2026, and has begun rolling the two-tab homepage out to many U.S. users with a global rollout planned over the next few weeks.
- The For You feed mixes posts from subreddits a user has joined with algorithmic recommendations tailored to their recent activity and interests.
- The Following feed shows only posts from communities a user subscribes to, and Reddit will remember which tab a user last opened so the app returns to that view.
- Early testers reported frustration at extra recommendations and clutter, and Reddit says it will add controls that let people mute topics or hide suggested posts.
- The move follows Reddit’s earlier deprecation of r/all and mirrors a broader industry shift toward recommendation-driven home feeds, a change that could boost discovery but may test community cohesion and moderator control.
