Digg’s officially launched now for about a month and it’s… really underwhelming.
The “Most Dugg” posts by upvotes as of this post:
+110, +107, +89, +86, +84, +84, +79, +79 (roughly in the last 24 hours)
As compared to Lemmy/Piefed/Mbin as seen on Lemmy.world (Top in last 24 hours):
+1.22k, +952, +855, +751, +669, +646, +620, +612
That’s really poor from Digg honestly.


It’s interesting hearing “There’s nothing on Digg it’s dead, fediverse is more active” because when I joined Lemmy people were using the same comparison of reddit vs the fediverse. Things take time to build and they are still in beta. Lemmy is way more active and settled than when I first joined (hell I originally joined kbin instead). It’s good to have competition. I am active on both and I believe they will have different demographics.
My niche community already works better on digg
