Even if the names of each subreddit one opts into were hashed and salted with a piece of information unique to each user account, you can just try hashing the names of all the questionable subreddits you would like to investigate, and see what matches. There's a finite number of them so it would be quite practical to carry out.

Really unlikely. Reddit didn't bother to encrypt it before why would they now. Would just toast the server's even more
