New Reddit has a lot more tracing and BI, tracking user behavior in order to suggest ads/content. It's part of why the New site is so much slower to scroll through, but it does mean a lot more data for Reddit to work with regarding their users.
Not to mention the dark UX patterns like hiding comments behind a More button, which itself is tracked and may serve an ad alongside the comments fetched.
