    I left Digg V2 when it went to shit, to Reddit. Now that the same is happening to Reddit (fuck spez), interested to see what Digg Reboot would be like.

      You’re here now. There’s not an ad in sight. Actually people talking to you.

      Why do you want to go check out some corpo bullshit?.I am serious. I don’t understand why people want our chat forums to be run by venture capital.

          What lesson didn’t you learn the first time that you feel like you need to learn again?

            It comes down to this, maybe they can improve upon something. They’re talking about building something resistant to political trolling, hate speech, and misinformation. If they can do that, that would be valuable. I’m willing to wait and see.

            I’m willing to wait and see, especially because Lemmy has no defense against that kind of thing. I think there’s probably less hate speech and misinformation on Lemmy than reddit right now, but if Lemmy became the dominating service, it would have massive problems, just like reddit.

            I like the federation aspect of Lemmy, that feels extremely valuable, I’m not discounting that. But I think not being open to other options or ideas is plain stupid.
