Digg lost its popularity for the same reason Reddit is. It started taking investment money and began to please only the share holders. Yeah it's private owned again, but they will just repeat the cycle because the temptation is there.
I've only been using Lemmy for a few months, but it seems to me that taking any instance public will not be a feasible business model. i don't recommend anyone go back to digg unless you just like watching enshitification happen. Should they reboot Ebaulmsworld while they're at it? I know that last statement struck a nerve!
