Not only Digg, but I also watched Tech TV and was on forums I can't even remember the names of. I'm still using IRC.

Even though I was in the prime age group for Digg, I shockingly never even heard of it until after I became a Reddit user and heard tales of its demise.

StumbleUpon was my main Internet resource during those years. I still miss it.

Digg was amazing till they ruined it. =\

DIGGnation!

I was really active Digg user and later HackerNews when it was really about hacking and not startups bs.

I even went to Diggnation Live, here in London.

Learned about digg and started using it only for it to die a few months later. Discovered Reddit back in the 2010s while searching for Bodyweight fitness advice and stayed till the API fiasco.

Digging Lemmy now (☞ﾟヮﾟ)☞

I joined Digg sometime around 2008 when the first videos of those crazy Russians climbing giant cranes first hit the web. I was over the moon with Digg but around 2010 one of my college roommates started yammering about this site Reddit and how much better it was. I don't think I actually visited Reddit until 2011, and even then I lurked for a year before I even made an account and started commenting on things. But the downfall of Digg and rise of Reddit was swift, and back then when Aaron was alive it really was a great site.

Yeah it was a huge event, felt like a giant online protest, and from my perspective it was the beginning of the end for Digg, and signaled it's decline.

I used to use my Blackberry to read Digg every morning in college while waiting for classes to start. It was great in its heyday, but maybe that's just nostalgia or that I'd not experienced anything quite like it prior.

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 used it a little bit, not extensively. I watched Diggnation with Kevin and Alex though semi-regularly, as I used to watch TechTV prior to that.

I'd love to have diggnation back

I'm too young for Digg.

I wasn't. Before Reddit I was on IRC.

Almost never did, to be honest, but I'm sure I missed out on a lot of interesting stuff because of it.

What is Digg?

I still use Digg.

I used digg a fair amount before the v4 revamp

Haven't a clue what Digg and the other one are. I've just found Sync.

I never used Digg at all. Before the Internet consisted almost exclusively of "social media", I was mainly on topic-specific web forums run on software like phpBB and SMF.
