To offer an opposite argument, I hated reddit before the redesign and always take "old." out of links.

Every reddit looked like a geocities offering to me, they were inconsistent in coloring and contrast and all the bullshit I don't care about. Non-old reddit gave me a more consistent and less distracting way for me to quickly browse subreddits and posts I'm interested in and getting out.

with old.reddit.com when logged in you can opt out for subreddits been able to override the CSS then you get the vanilla and clean defaults everywhere.

I use it as my "whoops, forgot to login" reminder.

I didn't know you could do that, I'll give that a try.
you can also nuke the subreddit style for individual subreddits when you are logged out.
not with RES
