Digg is about to be rebooted. Thoughts? (reboot.digg.com)

Not much info yet, but I grew up on Digg, so I’m cautiously optimistic. Probably no Fediverse support, but honestly, any Reddit alternative is a win. Really hoping for real API access and third-party apps.

Digg was absolutely amazing when it was new, but it didn't take long to turn to shit for some reason, and reddit was way better during the old reddit/Digg war.
Fun thing is that reddit now does many of the same things Digg did before Digg turned completely away from its original concept.

I must admit my hopes for Digg becoming relevant for me again is near zero, like VERY near zero.
