This screenshot was recently released by the Digg team.

Digg was the predecessor to reddit, which destroyed itself with a catastrophically bad redesign, pushing everyone to move to reddit. Now, they’re attempting a re-launch.

Looks like they’re going all-in on gamification, which doesn’t inspire much hope from me. It’ll be interesting to see what eventually arrives.

UPDATE: My source for this was here which is supposedly a screenshot of a tweet by https://x.com/avstorm

But there is no tweet about digg by that account. Also the tweet doesn’t fit the style of his other tweets.

So yeah. The whole thing is likely to be fake.

UPDATE 2: original tweet https://x.com/avstorm/status/1924956444673106374. But it has no attribution and afaik ‘avstorm’ is not affiliated with Digg. I still think it’s fake.

      That’s another point against lemmy: trying to decide what instance to set up shop in, and then discovering that despite your best efforts you chose wrong.
