You won't see them, unless the "disguised as a post" type ads.
old.reddit.com for desktop use and "RIF is fun" (previous 'reddit is fun', but reddit cried over the use of their name) app for mobile. Only way to view that site nowadays.

I can't wait to go to prison for a fukken meme.
Next up:
With our users in mind, Soybook has disabled uploading untagged media files (known also as raw files) to prevent misinformation and harassment. Exceptions are allowed through our customer service reps, who are happy to take your call any time of the day!
I'm so fucking sick of this shit. At this rate any danknet will be illegal in 3 years and encryption will be only allowed through a proprietary HTTP extension that (serverside) will be licensed strictly to enterprises.

Likely, no.
This is why everyone needs to get a network level gateway/router/firewall solution and push blocking regardless of device connected to the LAN.
Policies and good intended laws at this point aren't going to save people from the vileness of the silly-con valley, data collectors, organized crime and hundreds of organizations collecting data to be used against you in the future. No you won't need to be a law breaker either. What they treat the convicted to always trickles down to the general public.
Remember when crypto export controls where about terrorism? Now we have normal people daily behind crypto on everything they do. Now the enemy is DARPA involved in the child trafficking and potential of. Companies like Palantir mirroring content on popular public sites like Craigslist - in cooperation with DARPA (funding).
Ads too started about just selling a product. Now the product is this long tail tracking and profiling. Give you something for 'free' to trick you onto their slave plantation. You are the product and being bought and sold and abused like a street walker. You just don't know it yet.

Summary:
-
We will no longer support the option to opt out of personalization of ads based on your Reddit activity.
-
If you are logged out of reddit and cruising the site, no longer can you customize ad crap preferences.
Just another big fat company pushing ads hard and ugly.
Erect your ad blockers folks. Trust none of them.

I'll save you a click:
Hey there redditors,
As Reddit has grown, so has the complexity of the preferences we provide to meet the varied needs of our users. Our current User Settings, which allow you to change your preferences at any time, have been long overdue for some TLC. This week, we’re cleaning up and simplifying some user preferences to help users better understand how their data is being used and to be able to opt-out of settings more easily.
What’s changing:
Simplifying Personalization Preferences: Our personalization preferences have been pretty confusing. There are six personalization options, three of which deal with personalization of ads, two of which confusingly both deal with personalization of ads based on partner data. These two settings (“Personalize ads based on information from our partners” and “Personalize ads based on your activity with our partners”) will be combined into one setting: “Personalize ads based on your activity and information from our partners.” We will no longer support the option to opt out of personalization of ads based on your Reddit activity.
Removing Outbound Click Preference: While there are safety and operational purposes for tracking outbound clicks, we leverage only aggregated data and have never personalized Reddit content based on this data, so we’re removing this setting to reduce confusion.
Removing Logged Out Personalization Settings: All User Settings are tied to a user account. Previously, we had ads personalization settings available for logged out users. We’ll be removing these settings to reduce confusion.
Reddit’s commitment to user privacy isn’t changing. For users who want to have a non-personalized version of Reddit, they can always continue to use Reddit without logging in. We also launched Anonymous Browsing Mode on our iOS and Android app last year to support private browsing from our native app experience. You can find more info on Reddit's Personalization Preferences here.

Amazing how aggressive Brave is at spinning PR. Anything to protect your advertising revenue and shitcoin. How much $$$$ is enough for your people? Atypical Silicon Valley greed that 80% of the flyover zone of the US is tired of.
That ghacks post happened and already had their devs and known Brave workers commenting.
Too bad Brave isn't as aggressive about security, exposing customers, risk mitigation, etc. Took a month to patch this. Untold number of people, sites, etc. exposed. You should be liable for that as well as the leak. All created because of your ad shit. See dev notes.
It's is NOT a feature to bundle a half a$$ed lousy implementation of Tor browser functionality. Then claim it isn't a replacement. Then claim it isn't suitable for absolute anonymity. At best the feature is a novelty for lazy end users and to capture more usage data for those too unaware to use a site like Tor2Web. I sure wish the Tor developers would speak up about what Brave did and continues to do.
If anyone should know better, it is Yan Zhu, Brave's head of security. How many people has Yan knew where security mattered and subsequent unearthing of them resulted in death and long detention?
Yan, this isn't a game friend. Brave you people aren't. You are inept, short sighted and dangerous to people exercising free speech and free thought in oppressive environments. That includes in the ever problematic United States, China, etc.
Solution, remove Tor functionality from your browser. How many people need to be detained, how many imprisoned, how many dare I say killed due to your negligent leaking?

Brave Browser Was Exposing Addresses in Tor Mode for Months: https://www.coindesk.com/brave-browser-leak-exposed-user-domain-info-months
What about .Zil?
I PREDICT IT HAS AN EXACT SIMILAR and just as scary leak out to DNS of addresses that use .zil secure private psuedo-TLD!
.zil leaks to DNS of ISP?
Blockchain Domain Names, No Renewal Fees, Ever. your name record on a Zilliqa BLOCKCHAIN revocable only by you, and auto converted to full URL of your preference via a small open source addon to all main browsers, that resolves .zil addresses
https://unstoppabledomains.com/
for example
ramble.zil might map to https://ramble.pw
but this buggy brave browser might accidentally , if broswer extension missing or turned off, REVEAL TO FEDS that you tied to go to "ramble.zil" because the same fuctards sending onion urls to DNS leaking your actions to feds, will now also send any clicked links that go to a.zil address to try and resolve a .zil at your ISPs DNS
For SHAME!
Feb 8 2021 : How to resolve .zil domain names : https://medium.com/unstoppabledomains/how-to-resolve-zil-domain-names-f43da8fe37a9
Sites for privacy will all soon offer an alternative url using a .zil to redirect to CURRENT preferred net address... even if a raw IP and port on a anti-DDOS service site.
.zil is the future of free speech and unstoppable domains, and i bet brave bug merely hard compares the word ".onion" and will now leak ".zil", just like the bug a few days ago.
fucktard coding.
PD. Also rambler :
read that last tutorial link and actually create a record you control for for "ramble.zil" before the ADL or SPLC subverts you and makes one first.

Reply to comment by spc50 in Chinese team finds security vulnerabilities in Apple M1 chip devices and iPhone 12 Pro - CnTechPost by div1337
That is on version of OS from a few revisions ago : 11.0.1, not 11.2.x from nowadays.
I think its a big deal, but has no practical value in the wild.

Probably only a little deal because 11.0.1 stopped shipping long ago and LOTS of patchess since 11.0.1 :
https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201260
See? Current is 11.2.1, not 11.0.1, as per Apple
And many updates between.
If you bought a M1 computer 2 weeks ago it is shipped from China with OS : 11.1 (not 11.0.1) and Also 2 weeks ago firmware version is "6723.61.3". Also if you plugged in that computer, it tries , if you let it, to immediately install a giant new OS update. The update removes ability to run old sideloaded iPhone apps on m1 macs, so some might stick with 11.1 (not 11.0.1) for a while before letting apple force 11.2.1
THOSE HACKS IN THAT LINK might not have value, if they only work on 11.0.1 version of older OS

This should have been implemented decades ago. Creating the solution is not difficult in the slightest, and cookies have been a known privacy concern for a long time.

Same garbage approach really as Google took when transferring itself to Alphabet then calling various chunks of it's cash cows different companies.
This is all to stave off anti trust issues and pretend like different operating units.
Facebook however doesn't get this game at all.
It buys brands, folds them in, then shares data with the motherships and does tracking all over the place.
You destroy Facebook's tracking and eliminate their advertising to you, all they have left is any tracking collected in very sneaky ways.
Time has come for everyone to have a proper gateway router at the doorway to your internet connection. Full Linux feature set. The day of nulling and blackholing whole AS Numbers has come.

My solution, do away with all gun permits. I don't care what you want to carry, handgun, long gun, rifle, sword, spear, etc.
Everyone must open carry. You carry concealed, you break the law and could be prosecuted.
I point directly at little experiment since 1980's in Kennesaw, Georgia.

Reply to DNA test said a California man was 4 percent black. Now he wants to qualify as a minority business owner. by Rambler
Amen.
This dude rocks!
It is all about perceived socioeconomic status. But it is as-is about simpletons on about race. Ya'all discriminate, so let's cheat and discriminate to make it fair to those people 'victimized' by such prior.
No. Let's not.
Don't people that get this sh!t and have been hired under flawed affirmative action ever take a sane look in the mirror? Don't they ever realize likely unqualified and have no business being where they are.. that likely in fact performance and relative experiences makes them inferior?
A big dose of humility is needed for race pimps.

This website is available from more than lokinet (also on Tor, I2P, Yggdrasil and the clearnet) but you do make a good point.
Reduce the amount of places you use the same username.
When Voat shutdown and people were flocking to new sites and saying, "Hey, I'm thisguy over here too!" I was facepalming. I was thinking that, for those people, that's the perfect time to start fresh with a new web ID on whatever platform they went to. For many: Nope.
