I have actually. The way it's always worked for Reddit (and social media in general) is that you provide them a license to do things with the content, but the site doesn't take ownership of the content. This isn't a meaningless distinction either. It's a key part of Reddit's legal shield from all the illegal content they unknowingly host, via things like section 230.
