A few observations

  • interface is cleaner than Reddit (some people will probably complain about the space wasted, even in "compact" mode, but most users should be fine)
  • there is only a handful of communities existing at the moment, and no option to create more. See picture for the list.
  • feature-wise, it looks very similar to Reddit/Lemmy/Piefed: upvotes/downvotes, comments, sort types

Based on what happened with Twitter, Bluesky and Mastodon, we can probably imagine that Digg might be a new actor that quite a few people will join, when the people the most aware of enshittification of corporate platforms will stay on Lemmy/Mbin/Piefed

Random thought: maybe a "lifestyle" community could be a way to encompass a few communities that struggle to stay active

interface is cleaner than Reddit

Ever heard about something called „Frontends”?

[-] apftwb@lemmy.world 4 points 6 months ago

Yeah and Reddit killed their API and all third party apps. That's how I got here.

I'm not a native speaker, is "interface" incorrect in this context?

[-] Luffy879@lemmy.ml 2 points 6 months ago

The default interface, yes

But since just about everything has an API, including reddit, its pretty nonsensical to make it an argument, since you can use Any frontend or app for them.

Isn't Reddit making their API paid why most of the people came here?
