Not much info yet, but I grew up on Digg, so I’m cautiously optimistic. Probably no Fediverse support, but honestly, any Reddit alternative is a win. Really hoping for real API access and third-party apps.
You must log in or register to comment.
You shouldn’t expect a lot from a zombie.
They say they’ll use AI, so fuck them.
Why would I care about a site that killed itself some 15 years ago being rebooted, especially taking into account that were on Lemmy, a federated system? I don’t care
Any alternative is not a win. Fediverse only moving forward.
Gods no. Why bounce between corpo sellouts?
I’m fine right here, thanks. Although I’d been using Reddit for some time at that point, I permanently left Digg as part of the Great Exodus. I don’t see any particular appeal to going back to a centralized service, especially in the current climate.
With any luck, they’ll take some of the users bailing out of Reddit on the nostalgia factor, become mediocre, and die. Again.
They can fuck off, I remember why I quit that site in the first place
If they federate then its good otherwise its just gonna be the same thing as reddit all over again
I don’t see any info on this from the sign up page on what it is and product differentiation. So… I’m signing up because I like Kevin Rose…?
I’m rooting for them simply because I want to see Reddit and them fight. I’m not going to be switching, because I’m basically done with centralized ultracapitalist bullshit for personal use.
Yeah the chasing profit is what ultimately dooms public forums.
100% this. Why would I go back to another centralized corpo line must go up service that will inevitably enshittify when we got lemmy right here?
I could like Digg if it was federated. But I bet it won’t.
Preach!
Why would you expect an aggregator-and-comment site bought and rebranded by reddit-cofounder O’Hanian to end up significantly different than his other aggregator-and-comment site?
They’re probably skint and need a loan.
Problem is, they created it? Oops
US americans trying to cash in on discontent with buzzwords like AI and trying to steal the thunder of actual worthy alternatives like lemmy. The fact Ohanian is part of the founders immediately places it into the shit tier bucket for me.
You’re right. An even shittier reddit that failed due to extreme greed before? What’s the point?
Lemmy has thunder?
Yes. It’s an iOS client. 😏
And Android*
User on both platforms checking in, it’s great!
Why would I go back to Digg when we have Lemmy?
Shorter name.
I digg that comment!
Lemmy express that I really digg yours too. Had to laugh right after I reddit.
