r/IAmA
An “AMA” means “Ask me anything,” and you never know who is going to show up to answer Qs in this subreddit. Recent guests include Bill Gates, an Alaskan salmon fisher, and a 92 year-old WWII veteran. Make sure you’re the first to ask your question with a connection that sends you a push notification when there’s a new hot post.
r/InternetisBeautiful
Obviously, here at IFTTT we agree with that sentiment! This subreddit is a place where people share their favorite, underappreciated corners of the web. From the useful to the absurd, there’s always something that will make you click through. Gather up the top posts in a weekly email digest for a little Friday fun.
If we didn’t mention your favorite topic, don’t despair: you can easily connect to any subreddit on the site.
Once you’re comfortable with the site and you’ve racked up some “karma,” connecting your favorite apps and devices can also help you contribute more, too.
r/ListenToThis
If you’re sick of the same old on the radio, this sub might introduce you to your new favorite artist. This connection hooks it directly into your Spotify, so you can automatically build a playlist of undiscovered tunes to check out.
