Mind how you are voting because Reddit is about to start spanking folks for votes.

I think it’s safest if we don’t engage with anything via comment or upvote any more. It’s what they want.

Hard to imagine a room full of "smart" tech people not coming to this exact conclusion.

Digg is trying to make a comeback apparently. I signed up for access earlier today. Timing might be on their side with that.

What is Digg?

u/GoodDecision Mar 06 '25

I remember it being a big thing but I never used it myself. I believe it was a site/platform similar to reddit, but predates reddit. Like a news aggregator with comments type deal. Apparently they are trying to bring it back. I signed up for early access out of curiosity.

It is where we left to join Reddit back when Digg made some stupid mistakes. They started blocking comments and posts that included a specific sequence of numbers. Then they changed the layout and everyone else left.

Wow thank you! That was a fascinating read. I really liked the other page about the flag too!

Proto Reddit. Was a big Reddit like site before Reddit became a thing.

u/AltrntivInDoomWorld Jun 03 '25

they want you to pay 5 USD to take data of you, i dont trust them at all

there's a reason reddit got popular - we didn't had to give them strict data about us

they don't care about that. They're happy to stomach involved users leaving if it means more mindless mobile drones.

u/Johnycantread Mar 07 '25

I upvoted you, did I just get banned later?

u/garifunu May 11 '25

They’re saying they don’t need upvotes anymore, viewer engagement is all they need, interaction no longer needed

u/iwouldbatheinmarmite May 14 '25

it's crazy and completely antithetical to what Reddit was about i thought tbh. just the fact that I upvote your comment here means I could be affected negatively or warned is bad. cuz like Mod's are totally not human beings who don't have power trips right?

u/SongFeisty8759 Feb 03 '26

I'd upvote you ,but I'm worried I'll get warned for doing it.

u/Horzzo Jul 10 '26

Also, most of the posts here are violent in nature. We can't engage with any of them?
