I use Brave all day long and have never experienced this. I see no ads, so working as intended, I guess.

Also, I love the useful little features they include like redirecting all http requests from www.reddit.com to old.reddit.com. One can also bypass paywalls at the NY Times and The Economist with the click of a button.

I use Brave daily and have never heard of this feature. How do I turn this on?

You can literally just set this up in your reddit settings though.

That requires being logged in and gets regularly reset.

I've looked everywhere for this but can't find it. I'm on Brave Desktop v1.44.112

Sorry, we might be crossing devices then. I'm talking about iPhone Brave, which is where I use it.
