Digg’s officially launched now for about a month and it’s… really underwhelming.

The “Most Dugg” posts by upvotes as of this post:

+110, +107, +89, +86, +84, +84, +79, +79 (roughly in the last 24 hours)

As compared to Lemmy/Piefed/Mbin as seen on Lemmy.world (Top in last 24 hours):

+1.22k, +952, +855, +751, +669, +646, +620, +612

That’s really poor from Digg honestly.

    Keeping in mind that I didn’t use Digg much back in the day, I don’t really understand the idea of re-launching a service that fell out of use in the first place.

    Or if MySpace (etc) was to relaunch with modern features, could it expect to succeed out of nostalgia, or something…?

      Nostalgia and hoping to grab users as they abandon reddit, which is where the users originally moved in the first place.
