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.

I don’t have high hopes. Kevin and Alexis had an opportunity to succeed with Digg and Reddit already. The enshittification of Digg was complete, there’s no going back. And Reddit, well, it’s Reddit.

We need something new and innovative, and I don’t see resurrecting a dead horse as adding any value to the current ecosystem of social and news apps.
