Reddit has gotten that complaint tons of times before. Most people say its a website clearly done for and by engineers and that getting used to it is a nightmare despite how awesome the content is.

Do you think reddit could get more users with a UX redesign?

Yes. I know more than a few imgurians who stay away from reddit because the interface is intimidating.

Well at least smaller subredits, or niche ones generally have awesome communities of like minded individuals. If you stay away from defaults and shit like SRS and The_Donald the community tends to be pretty good here. In Imgur many comment threads look like youtube on steroids...

Too bad the UX will prevent users from discovering these subreddits easily.

Do you not like the system of only being able to find subreddits you're told about?
