How do I tailor my subreddit subscriptions to suit me?

It would be useful to me if I were able to tailor the algorithm by hand. A few knobs, levers, and buttons would go a long way to allowing me to shape my own filter-bubble and curate the experience I want. I strongly doubt they will expose such an API for a few reasons:

  • The vast majority of users have no interest in doing this; they want it fully-automated with as little input as possible.
  • This could be very computationally expensive. Reddit's infrastructure has never been terribly stable.
  • Advance Publications may have unobvious and paradoxical advertisement-based and editorial/cultural/political reasons to force users into having a particular pattern of experiences (perhaps similar to FB).
