So not only was the AI put front and center, it was also put in first?!
I've looked at plenty of alpha software before, and I've seen plenty of incomplete features. I understand that one has to give an unfinished product leeway. But devs do not simply accidentally add a whole feature into an app. Or if this was somehow all a huge coincidental mistake, they made a massive PR blunder.
summaries are a non issue, stealing other ppls work to pass of on your own is

nods enthusiastically in Mbin
How's mbin doing, lately? I switched (back) to Lemmy when kbin shuttered and haven't kept up with it.

The hero no one wanted, or needed
But other than that. Cool
Cool how?

Is anyone else amazed that digg just won’t die? How many other popular sites have come and gone, and yet, digg is always lurking in the shadows.

My mom still maintains her Angelfire site. MySpace still exists. There are historical cities that are ghost towns of what they once were - yet the cities exist. Once you reach a particular space of cultural ubiquity, it gets hard to disappear.

I also understand that reddit is more of a cuprit when it comes to a zero click internet, and thats because ppl summarizing in comments and no one clicking the article. The ai summary is shorter then a human one would be, its literally one sentence, summary already exists discouraging a human summary so ppl click the link for more information. I bet ppl are more likely to click links with a tldr than they are with a reddit top comment summarizing with sources and whatever else

not quite sure it’s not starting out enshittified
If it stars out enshittified then you never had anything to enshittify, just plain shit.

All valid points, and he base truth around all this is there's no way this is the original Digg anyway. Someone bought the name rights and have Diggs' corpse strung up with a painted on smile.
I'm pretty sure I read the other day that it's the original founders of Digg (Kevin Rose) who bought back the corpse and are leading this with VC funding.

Digg has been basically dead for 15 years.
