Except not everything is about percentages. It's the same calculation Ballmer (big fan otherwise) did to let windows terminal rot. You need to multiply this with their effectiveness. Are those people looking at ads and making money for reddit directly? Probably 99% of them have adblock and res installed. But those are also likely to be the kind of users who would build bots and extensions for your website and help its growth.

Well the thing is those who use new layout are more likely casual users that have no res or adblock installed, compared to old reddit users.

A lot of people who actually create content or administer subs are on the old site, I have to guess.
