MODERATORS
We left Digg for Reddit about 20 years ago because of enshitification, the same way we left Reddit for the Fediverse recently, there is no way I am going back to Digg!
What, Digg was before Reddit? Thought Reddit was the OG forum of the global internet.
Before Reddit and everything was forum sites. I use many of them today.
even their tagline the frontpage of the internet is digg's and they took it back
Digg based the voting off of a simplified version of Slashdot's. Except they let everyone vote. Reddit then took that concept and added user generated categories and user moderating.
