Digg is making a comeback. With the backing of people like Digg cofounder Kevin Rose and Reddit cofounder Alexis Ohanian, Digg has ambitions to once again be the homepage of the internet. The revival is still in its very early days — the platform is still invite-only — but Digg launched its new mobile apps this week.

Reading the Verge comments are brutal. yikes! People have a long memory in the tech space.

i also feel bad for them going down the "world coin id" for real human verification path and making crazy statements like we are going to use zk rollups to prove you really used this product before reviewing it.

if only they heard of lighting zaps they could sort quality posts by those that have received the most value.

oh wait! that is stacker.news

speaking for myself and PL will keep meeting people where they are, and laying rails so it compounds + a repeatable city kit per say with predictable anchors (hackerspace, startup school, top builder, startup day) more touch points, less friction, faster glide path into a parallel Bitcoin economy, I would say its already happening people are stepping up and are already building these things and making it happen one way or another, everyone has a part to play plebs, devs, builders, holders, investors, zappers, its there i see it never been more bullish
