Digg’s new app is basic, but a great start
Digg, the once-popular social news platform, has launched a new mobile app as part of its efforts to make a comeback. The app operates similarly to Reddit, allowing users to submit links, comment, and vote on content. The platform is still in its early stages, with the app currently being invite-only. The new Digg app features a straightforward design, focusing on the core functionality of link sharing and voting. Users can "digg" (upvote) content they find interesting, and "bury" (downvote) posts they don't like. The app aims to curate the most popular content on the internet, similar to how Digg was once known as the "homepage of the internet." The revival of Digg is being backed by influential figures like Digg co-founder Kevin Rose and Reddit co-founder Alexis Ohanian, who are working to restore the platform's former glory and relevance in the digital media landscape.
