Not much info yet, but I grew up on Digg, so I’m cautiously optimistic. Probably no Fediverse support, but honestly, any Reddit alternative is a win. Really hoping for real API access and third-party apps.

Its being recorded by Reddit cofounder Alexis ohanian. I don’t think they’ll fight lol

    He has nothing to lose by competing. He owns a stake in Reddit, and he's rebooting a competitor. He wins either way, and striking out on his own has a better chance of making him more money than relying on his stake.

    If he fails and Reddit "wins," he still has his stake to fall back upon.
