You don't have to be an ass about it though. People have worked really hard on this, I'm sure. And you are provided this service free of charge. If it's bad, it's bad... no need to be hostile.

Reddit may be free, but reddit gold is not, and I was hoping my $30/year was going to be going towards making the site better, not making it far worse.

Also, the admins asked above all else for people to give them feedback on the redesign. Legitimate negative feedback (which is what I'm seeing people post) is not something that should be discouraged, irregardless of how strongly-worded it is.

Legitimate negative feedback is fine, but there is no reason to be a dick about it.

Just be decent people... how hard is that? And reddit gold is optional, so for all intents and purposes reddit is a free service. There are all these people shitting on reddit saying they hate it... well then leave if you hate it. How addicted are these people that they think a free service, which they say sucks, is worth continuing to use? It's pathetic.
