> If you access Reddit via https://old.reddit.com it's always the better UI

This is an assumption that I'd had until I read feedback from users who joined reddit after introduction of the new reddit design, that old reddit web interface is ugly. Well, I think reddit knows better than us. They have the data!

That's the whole plan, keep the old interface around (along with power users) until the new user population (who only knows the new interface) grows large enough to be able to get rid of the old interface without getting a full Digg-like exodus.

Well the old interface is ugly. But the new interface is ugly and less ergonomic.
