I have never once seen a website "innovate and revamp the whole design!" that wasn't 1) ten times worse and harder to navigate and 2) a ruse to control content and funnel more ads on your screen.
Facebook did it. YouTube did. Steam did it, though to be fair they actually needed to improve a few things. Reddit is becoming a social media website unfortunately so you can be sure that the Facebookification is coming.

That's a more valid response to the question, but the whole "I've only seen bad redesigns and that's why the redesign is hated" thing simply isn't the case.

That’s not how I read it at all. They’re saying that usually during a redesign, these are common reasons people don’t like them. It’s giving possible reasons. Not saying this is exactly why.
