I really don't understand the hate for the modern reddit ui, its great! I really hate clicking on reddit links on Hn because they are almost always old.reddit.

old.reddit is just more efficient on the screen. You can scan hundreds of articles in a fraction of time from the new.reddit.

In the example of OP: On modern reddit, reading the entire top post requires 2 taps (1 to dismiss the "try the app" overlay, another for "Read more" to expand).
old, teddit, and libreddit all require 0 taps.

Since you are on mobile, this is an acceptable tradeoff to actually be able to read the posts and the comments.
Of course libreddit is the best in this case.

How is the app-nag-overlay an acceptable tradeoff?

Its better than not being able to read the post at all, and brave blocks that by default since the last update.

Are you the designer of new reddit?
