This is my beef with new Reddit too. I didn't like the look, but I could have learned to live with that, the problem was it changed the fundamental way users were expected to interact with the site. Old.reddit is a discussion site. Someone posts a topic, either text or link, and other members comment. New Reddit wants you to scroll through linked content on the front or sub page (with interspersed ads) and commenting isn't the point. If you do want to click through to the comments, they're interupted with links to different posts. Fine if you're just there to waste time and browse memes, intensely irritating if you're after something specific.
