I agree. The previous UI was much better.

The new UI feels like a roomful of fresh graduates designed it.

I think my brain has linked together modern ui with slow, broken and full of tracking. I think there might be nothing really wrong with the actual UI of reddit but its all the other things that got lumped in with the redesign.

Every time I see an old looking website or program its almost a refreshing feeling that it isn't going to try to suck money and data from me.

Big +1. Also design that favors metrics. Why did they include this one thing? Why did they remove the other? They're probably pushing you to use the site in a way that increases time spent on site by xx%.
