For me it's just that
I don't have unlimited time to scroll through stuff I'm not interested in. In my previous post I mentioned the few things that kinda annoy me but there's a lot more stuff that I feel neutral about but I'm just not into. Like sports. There was an unending amount of sports subs at Reddit for each team of every discipline and after a couple of years of browsing /r/all I realized I saved more time if I just hover+clicked them once to filter them instead of reading the title every time.
I feel like clearing up my /r/all from many big subs I wasn't into allowed me to find a lot of interesting, smaller communities.
I can see that's the difference. I never went to /r/all. I picked things I was interested in and if they were good subs I joined them. To each thier own I guess.
