    Digg died because Reddit existed when they started enshittifying. I think Reddit needs a mainstream competitor before it will just drop dead. Until then it will shamble around like a zombie with a bunch of AI powered bots arguing where its brain should be.

        Their moderation policy, unfortunately, turned them into a sewer. I’m pretty sure that hurt them a lot. I get what they were trying to do, but if you don’t kick out the Nazis when you see them, soon you’re “the Nazi place”.

          Yeah but they had real free speech unlike places like X/twitter. Gab has free speech but if your not “right winge christion” you get ignored and or attacked.
