Have they released any statistics about the redesign? Reddit is only usable to me with the old interface. I can only imagine new users will run away screaming,

  I honestly could not care less about statistics of the redesign, although user numbers would be interesting The new design is an absolute train wreck, it loads in slowly, feels like you're constantly running through treacle to do anything, let alone it gives my CPU fan a workout just to scroll through a page. The old design runs butter smooth, almost instantaneous. Navigating feels light and quick and it feels functional. I'm really hoping they don't turn off the old design because that will be a real sad day.

    Beside the heavy-ness, I've found the site unusable with mobile browsers because it constantly nags you in various different ways to "try out" their app.

  You mean statistics on the old interface? You do realize everyone is using the redesign by default, and the site continues to grow. Considering that they've recently backported a redesign feature to the old interface, I assume the latter is fairly popular still.

  For a anecdotal data point, I hate the redesign but have friends who love it. They would've immediately left upon seeing the old design (high bounce rate), but stayed and started browsing often with the new design. I've chatted with a few people about this. I personally hate the new design, but I am interested in UX design. I think its really interesting that it's so divisive.
