A lot of former Digg users felt the same way when they transitioned to reddit back in the day. It was a new and scary ecosystem, but it quickly became natural to use.

Digg proved that the switching costs to a new link-sharing platform are incredibly low. Huffman is about to find out just how low those switching costs are. He's right in the storm-eye of his Digg v4 moment, and probably only his resignation and complete re-work of the API plans can save the Reddit that was.

Reddit is dead, long live Fediverse.
