It does ask at the top "looks like you're browsing on a small screen. Would you like to try reddit's mobile interface?". Does it redirect you automatically on some other mobile browsers?

The same is happening when I'm connecting to reddit.com with iOS 7. 
So I don't think there is anything wrong. It seems it's a design choice from reddit.

Is there a mobile device where the behavior is different?
If there isn't, we can close this and leave reddit to make their UI choices :)
