This is "context sensitive" advertising. After decades of privacy invading "personalized" ads, this shows that Reddit/Google are at least open to experimenting with a different, more privacy focused approach. Is this the beginning of the end for "personalized" ads? We can only hope but the ad networks may not deserve too much credit for taking a step toward "doing the right thing". With more than half the users on the web now using ad blocking, this may be a simple act of self preservation on their part.
