Italki Changing?
I thought it might be fun for English learners to talk about what they think about the new version of Italki.
I myself am a creature of habit and will find it hard to cope with the changes. After years of using a product, sudden and drastic changes make it difficult and frustrating for me to adapt. Perhaps I am getting older and a bit more stubborn, but I find that if something works, why change it?
Microsoft has experimented with their operating system Windows many times over the years and most drastically in the last few years with the releases of Windows 8 and Windows 10. The feedback for Windows 8 wasn't good because it changed things to the extent that people could no longer use their computers are they had been for perhaps as long as 20 years. Simple tasks such as turning off the computer could no longer be accomplished. This was challenging for many people.
In response, Microsoft returned many of the original features to Windows to appease the angry consumers, many who opted to continue using Windows 7. I was someone who adapted to Windows 8 and one of the early adapter for Windows 10. Windows 10 is great in that the old features are still accessible, albeit in slightly different ways than in the past.
I wonder if the new Italki site will face some of the same criticisms? I, for one, will be holding onto the classic site for as long as possible, and hopefully be able to transition to the new site one day. Until that day, I live by the motto, "if it ain't broke, don't fix it". [disclaimer: it could be, if it ain't baroque, don't fix it?]
I'm open for corrections even though I'm a native speaker ( I still have much to learn when it comes to English).

I'm not a native speaker so I can't correct anything from your text :) I also prefer the old version of Italki. The new one looks fine but somehow it reminds me of Memrise, another language learning site. I still go for the old version though.
