Exactly. New design makes it much easier to be used by non-advanced users like your mom or nephew. They are often ignored in the context of HN discussions and seldom voice for themselves, but they did consist a large portion of user base.
- michaelmrose 8y agoPlease explain why the new design is easier.
- htfy96 8y agoThere are much fewer visual elements after the redesign. Take the post view as an example. The new design removes my subreddits, sub description & recent viewed posts and tries to hide all other elements like share links / absolute last replied date from the page. Same as the reason for the success of iPad, People like my mom feel petrified for a UI with many choices. In the new design if you look at the screen from meters away, you can easily identify the reply box & reply button as the only prominent visual element.
