Getting notifications from subreddits I’ve never interacted with (iPhone)

❓Problem❓

Deadass I’m getting sick of Reddit doing this. I’m apart of the LGBT+ community and for some messed up reason got a notification about a post from LGBTteenboys? I’m a grown ass man. I legit looked at my phone in horror and silenced all notifications from it, then the same thing happened again and had to go onto the main page of the sub and silence the subreddit entirely. It made me so uncomfortable just going in to mute it.

This isn’t the first time I’ve been recommended or gotten notifications from subreddits I’ve never stepped foot in at all and wouldn’t want to. I don’t want to silence all notifications because I’m active in communities I want to be apart of on here. How do I stop this from happening? Thanks.
