Reddit was there before digg 2.0 I frequented both for a at least a few years. Im old so my memory is fragile but it feels like it was more than a year at least
reddit that early on had no subreddits, no comment section, and was creating ghost accounts to give the illusion of activity. By Digg v4 it was much more fleshed out.
Somewhat true depending on when you migrated i guess. The diggbar was when i left, and when v4 made the masses move there was already high signal to noise on reddit. That can not be said about this place.
Edit: when i made the move I moved to something different than digg. This is just poor mans reddit clone. This is not where the most insightful people are, and the up/downvotes are driven by how popular an idea/answer is rather than if it brings some insight to the table.
Just my thoughts though, and i still browse reddit with RES for memes.
