Fool me thrice...

[zecg@lemmy.world]

Many such cases

Reddit used to be good, now its just another app nag whore.

[lost_my_mind@lemmy.world]

Ok......it kind of seems like your post had the intention of staying on topic, but then did a HARD pivot over to an entirely different topic, and tried to shoehorn it into this topic. But it didn't work. If I showed someone your post, and didn't give them context, nobody would guess you were talking about Kevin Rose relaunching digg.

Right? I watched him on TechTV as a kid, but then he turned into a douchey tech-bro and I haven't kept up - and now he looks like an old man!

1. Find new niche media
2. Enjoy
3. More people join
4. Media changes
5. More people = more context = wider viewpoints = more infighting
6. Media changes too much
7. Look for alternatives
8. Find new niche media
9. Enjoy
10. More people join......

I once listened to an episode of his tech-bro podcast and it hit me right in the childhood memories...

As far as centralized servers go I've always liked tildes.net as a reddit alternative.

[briantheebiscuiteer@lemmy.world]

He looks like early 2000s Kevin Rose aged up to pretend he's 2020s Kevin Rose.

I would append to #5: “= more ad revenue = more bending over for shareholders”

[muntedcrocodile@lemm.ee]

Can we bully him into federating

Same. I was a Digg refuge when I joined Reddit as well. That redesign was totally ass!

[cheeseburger@lemmy.ca]

I rememeber leaving Digg.

[astralpath@lemmy.ca]

I can appreciate your viewpoint here, but there are a lot of good people in this world that are married to absolute scumbags.

[snotflickerman@lemmy.blahaj.zone]

A valid point.

[rusticus@lemm.ee]

And Kevin Rose was the killer the first time.

Briefly joined Discuit during the Reddit API ruckus but I was already on Lemmy so I never stuck with it. It's been open sourced and the people seemed mostly pleasant so it seemed like it was on a reasonable path towards creating a good space.
