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.
Are you just suggesting Lemmy needs competition? It has plenty of competition with PieFed and Mbin. Also in a way, every instance is competing with the others. Especially when talking about enshitification, the competition of instances is a big deal. Even if the software goes bad, good instances can just stay on the old good version, and fork it together.
