They are referring to digg who set up most AMA. Source: 10 months ago
Or is it a success because Reddit Inc has shown its hand of not giving a shit about your average user and this site will bleed users as they, especially power users who actually post and moderate and build the communities in the first place flee to places where their countless hours of unpaid labor are appreciated (like lemmy, kbin, mastodon), and good old reddit becomes a ghost town like digg which is apparently...

It's the great unraveling. Communities are torn asunder. It's could very well be the first step of Reddits fall. Or reddit will just look and feel very different afterwards. A husk of an aggregator. Go to digg.com right now to see what reddit might be. Source: 11 months ago
Reddit owes much of its success to the digg.com exodus, it would be fitting for its demise to be caused by a similar exodus. Source: 11 months ago
I went over to see what digg.com was up to these days. Their comment section is comprised of reddit comments. Brutal. Source: 11 months ago
I was here when the great exodus of digg.com when it used to be the userbase there but due to something like this all the users went to reddit and digg.com was no longer top ranked. Source: 11 months ago
I can see it easily becoming like how https://digg.com/ is today, except with major admin-run subreddits. Source: 11 months ago
It's ironic, I remember when people fled digg.com to go to reddit because it was seen as a true alternative to the exact same thing happening. Now here we are lol. Source: 11 months ago
Reddit obviously does not agree with the protest. So just restrict or re-open all subreddits for users who want to use it. Banned mods and protesting app users then can go back to digg.com in protest. Source: 11 months ago
I heard about this new site called digg.com - how about we move there? Source: 11 months ago
So let me get this correct. The CEO makes horrible changes to the API for 3rd party apps, a majority of the users say WTF, the CEO holds a AMA and doubles down, users say WTF again, popular subreddits go dark, CEO triples down and says not changing anything. This is how to alienate your users and they start or move to a new website. Gee that sounds famiar, who else did this....oh right "digg.com" did something... Source: 11 months ago
For everyone saying that this will all blow over in a week, everyone will come back, this is all being blown out of proportion...I point you to Digg. They said the same thing. Source: 11 months ago
First there was Slashdot then then there was Fark and then Dig and then came along Reddit. It offered a unique platform for people of like interest to come together and discuss topics related to that interest. Source: 11 months ago
This is such a sad outlook man. You must not have been around for digg.com. Source: 11 months ago
The employees can take over modding like digg.com. Source: 11 months ago
Yeah, we'll all just go back to digg.com! Source: 11 months ago
A good old reddit revolt would put reddit back in place. [Reddit CEO Steps down!](https://www.wired.com/2015/07/reddit-ceo-ellen-pao-steps-down-huffman-replacement/). Maybe it's best if we f*k off from this stupid app and go to [wamble.com](https://wamble.com) or [digg.com](https://digg.com) and build our community there instead. Source: 11 months ago
And digg.com/ is still around though I have no idea of the relationship to the original. Source: 11 months ago
Ah cmon you are talking about digg.com right I know that website I thought you are talking about other digg. Source: 11 months ago
FYI, Digg still exists, but your point pretty much stands—it's nowhere near as popular as it once was. Source: 11 months ago
Does anyone have the text where the autor compared digg.com to a vending machine that gave out wacky results and everyone loved it and then they fixed the vending machine and no one was interested any more. Source: 11 months ago
