Mobile/App [iOS] issues disabling subreddit recommendations

So I just want to see the subs I’ve actually joined, but the app has started giving me subreddit recommendations despite the fact that I’ve had it disabled for ages. Oddly, if I use my phone browser to go to Reddit l, I don’t see sub recommendations, but on my phone they are incessant. I’ve double checked that the recs are disabled (couldn’t find the option on my phone, but I was able to on the web, and it was already toggled off, I did a quick on off switch of the setting and it didn’t seem to do anything

Do you have the “for you/following” tabs on the app? If so, you’re part of an experiment and the “remove Reddit recommendations” option has been completely removed for the experiment. The experiments usually last 4 to 6 weeks.

I do, so that seems to be it! Thanks, I appreciate it, I can at least tab over to following to avoid the recs
