Reddit is focussed on tracking the user to keep them engaged as best as possible. Server-side rendering the page as a whole would render a lot of Reddits tracking useless. Just compare the amount of requests Reddit needs to load a single page to (e.g.) HN. Edit: They don't really care about speed because there is no competition similar to Reddit? So why bother?
