I know that some redditors were active on digg in trying to bring it down i dont see why they would other that they were the main competition to reddit. All that did was move people from digg to reddit so you now have the digg crowd that reddit hated so much on reddit. kind of counter productive if you ask me but reddit is a comical venture i think redditors forget this and still regard reddit as the underdog.
Maybe he'd just rather not speak the name of the service that replaced them?
While the community at Reddit has basically reached that apex where the average IQ starts to drop, the design of the website is very simple and easy to get used to. I'm very glad that hubski is just as simple and sleek. Also Hi Mk :)
Personally, I always favored the Reddit aesthetic to Digg. It might not be pretty, but it puts the content front and center. And that's why people are there. Also, hi Hellsadvocate!
