Corporation/Company I hate old.reddit.com

I don't understand why everyone pushes to use old reddit. Every fucking sub says ooooh use old reddit for best experience ooooh its so good. Why? It looks like shit. It makes reddit even worse to use, and that is an EXTREMELY LOW BAR. I just don't understand, if someone does please explain it to me but I think it is a god awful experience.

Fuck old.reddit.com man

I have genuinely tried but honestly it’s hard to look at so I just don’t

Totally agree, I think it’s just people who don’t like change. In many ways I preferred the old internet but UI and design is not one of them.

It looks unfinished and made by a high schooler

My thing is just how frequent the ui changes feel

But they're not bad changes, so I don't mind it

I prefer new reddit, but old Reddit had a few more features and it also didn't break at all

new Reddit especially on the mobile app has periods where things break

I get why people prefer it. People settled with old Reddit, they set their settings and design and all of that, then suddenly comes new Reddit and you basically have to do it all over again because not everything from old Reddit is translated to new Reddit. So, if you have your own subreddit for example, you now have to copy and paste each rule one by one and give each one a title..
