What to know

  • Reddit’s new layout lets you leave a community from only the community’s page itself.
  • To leave Reddit communities in bulk, you’ll need to access the old Reddit layout
  • On the subreddit page, simply click on ‘Leave’ against all the communities that you want to leave. 

Reddit users often go through several phases where they join multiple communities that catch their interest. But when the interests fizzle out, and it’s time to shut the door on these communities, going to each community page to leave them becomes a chore. Even though Reddit doesn’t have a single setting page where you can leave multiple communities at once, it can still be done, fortunately. Here’s how you can leave multiple communities at once on Reddit. 

How to leave communities on Reddit in bulk

Reddit’s new layout doesn’t let you ‘Leave’ multiple communities at once. In that sense, the old Reddit layout was much simpler and intuitive. But you can still access it and leave communities in bulk. Here’s how to go about it:

  1. Make sure you’re logged into Reddit. Then go to the following link – https://old.reddit.com/subreddits
  2. To the right, you’ll see a list of all your Home Feed Subreddits. 
  3. Click on Leave on a subreddit to leave it. 
  4. The red ‘Leave’ button will turn into a green ‘Join’ button, reflecting the fact that you’ve left the subreddit successfully. You won’t be asked for any confirmation.
  5. Now simply click on Leave next to all the subreddit communities that you want to leave. 
  6. And that’s it! If you want to rejoin these communities, simply click on ‘Join’.

    Note: Don’t refresh the page if you want to rejoin as you’ll lose the list of subreddits you’ve left. 

Although the old Reddit layout isn’t perfect for someone who’s joined scores of communities, it’s still the closest you can come to leaving subreddits in bulk. 

Reddit is a world unto its own. It’s not uncommon for new users to get swept away by the rich community where people from all walks of life come together to interact. With thousands of such subreddit communities to discover, deciding upon your interests is hardly ever a simple affair. But don’t let Reddit’s layout keep you from checking them out. You can always leave communities in bulk later. We hope this guide helped you with the same. Until next time!
