I've started using reddit only after they rolled out new. I hate old UI, and i've tried it many times.
People don't like when someone changes their toys. But that doesn't mean that new toy is a screw up, it's not something you got used to.
- obviouslynotme 3y agoIt has little to do with the look and feel. Loading a "new" reddit page feels like going on a 2010s news page without an adblocker. The page takes 15 seconds or more to load. Elements are shifting around during that time. If I'm not logged in, I get a screengrabbing beg ad to install their apps. Reddit code is trash. The old version is just much simpler and therefore less annoying. If it weren't for the fact that the smaller subreddits have lots of value, no one would put up with it.

- szatkus 3y agoI used Reddit before the new UI and... also prefer the new one. It's much better for browsing funny memes. But I don't use Reddit for "serious" stuff. There are subreddits for topics I'm interested in, but I would spend most of my day correcting people if I was subscribed there, because they are so bad. Funny cats are ok though.
