Rich guys make a Reddit mee-too, wearing the clothes of a long-dead website.
It has no unique content, is not the center forum of any community, no untapped niche to fill.
PROMISINGGGHHHH says the journalist
Edit: I fucking hate mainstream tech journalism.
When one person says it's sunny and another says it is raining, the role of the journalist is not to report the claims. The journalist's job is to look out the window and check.
When one person says it is sunny, the tech journalist's job is to sit in their windowless sweat cubicle and go "Wow! I am excited by how sunny it is!"
If you are going to use a platform by American criminal types (Rose's last project was a "NFT collection" pump and dump called Moonbirds), you might as well go with Reddit.

Digg’s new app is basic, but a great start
Digg has launched its new mobile apps for iOS and Android. I tried the new iOS app out, and it’s bare-bones but promising.
The Verge (www.theverge.com)
I’m a Digg groundbreaker, just because I wanted to see what the hubbub was about.
It’s definitely not a Reddit rip off, in fact Lemmy is closer to a “Reddit ripoff” than dig.
That said it is definitely being auto moderated by AI and they’re absolutely using AI all over the place but saying it’s “human at the core and tech at the edges”
If you’re on Digg it’s possible to be in regular contact with the devs and they kind of dance around how much AI agents are being used.
That said the AI tldr is actually really cool only because of how horribly it butchers some articles and you get to read wild stuff like JD Vance shooting Trump in the face for peeing the bed because the AI read the ads also.

"human at the core and tech at the edges"
Funny stuff, this how you know they have zero respect for their users.

Difficult, even if your instance blocks it, copies of it are all over the place.
If you wanted to train on Lemmy data, just pretend to be an instance and have all the public instances push their data to you. No scraping required, and you get all the metadata and context you could possibly want

Where is decent/good tech journalism these days?

"because AI reads that ads also" is fucking funny
You'd think summarizing just the article is something a LLM could do. Ah well

Do you have any invites left? I'd love one if you do.

Yep. We have Fediseer for such instances though.

Wasn't reddit the digg ripoff?
IIRC digg was the old reddit until it collapsed for being shitty.

There were a handful of aggregates but Reddit was less user focused than Digg was.
Reddit didn’t have comments initially, just voting news stories and topics. Comments killed Reddit by blowing it up for the masses
