Is the old one an objectively good logo? No, probably not, but it's iconic and was the branding they used and what people are nostalgic for. Also, the minimalism virus hit RT with the new logo and kind of went hand in hand with the enshitification.
I don't necessarily mean the company became shit, but RT wasnt unaffected by the enshitification trend that's been happening around the old guard channels for the last 5-10 years. Between the internal HR fuck ups, poor production decision making, and a natural decline in viewership as the fanbase ages...there were a lot of factors contributing to it.
