I use GitHub very little these days, and have mostly removed it from my daily workflow. But, on the whole, I mostly like the new design. It's more pleasing to look at, and doesn't really interfere with the things I still come to GitHub to do.
I still feel that the notifications redesign was poorly done, however, and that's where I spend most of my time. I ended up completely disabling almost all of my GitHub notifications as a result. The notifications redesign drove me from visiting GitHub a a few times per day to a couple of times per week. But to be honest, my usage was already on the wane by then, it may have just accellerated it.
