It's very slow and unresponsive. Any time saved with not having to reload the page is wasted several times over in the clunky UI, and the lags in loading data still remain.

The information density is much lower. It's harder to scan a page for its content because everything is more embellished. It's less focused on text, which IMHO used to be one of Reddit's best features. (Design feature.) And it feels very generic, like a basic Bootstrap template.
