    Right, but weren’t there a bunch of other changes at the same time that other people didn’t like? This seems like more frog boiling.

    Plus digg wasn’t as ingrained and established as Reddit is now.

    Plus Reddit had some really clear things about it that people liked better.

    And while there are some actually really good Reddit alternatives now, most don’t have a BIG draw for most people. And a bunch of people still complain about lack of content being the big problem (same with why millions of idiots are still using Twitter)

    I mean, look how few of us actually moved over permanently after the Great Migration last July, and that pissed off way more people than this probably will (with mass protests and everything).
