And not great at all for Digg.

Reddit is basically an organization that froze its leadership in carbonite back in 2010 and then thawed them out in mid-2015 to suddenly turn a profit with $50m in VC funding and a dwindling advertising landscape. This is why every move Alexis and Steve make look an awful lot like a Kevin Rose play from 2011.
