    I was on digg as well as reddit. I always liked reddit a lot better and was always baffled as to why digg was so much more popular. Reddit always felt more diverse (in topics) and organic (user driven) to me. I guess others had a different view.

    Sadly, no one no one seems to remember kuro5hin. Barely even me. It had its moments though.

      I wasn’t a fan of reddit in digg’s heyday because the site looked rough compared to digg and I was more interested in the discussions on digg at the time.

      I only started using reddit heavily when digg rolled out digg v4. Weirdly enough, reddit seemed to look better afterward, like they improved their ux since my last visit.

        Interesting perspective. I had not considered the aesthetic angle.

      I seem to recall spending time on there, but that’s about all I remember about it.
