I get what he was going for, even if he phrased it in a shitty way. His problem was more the mods that caved in and went back, not with the ones who said “I’m done” and stuck to thier guns.
While there’ll undoubtably be much more people coming to here and other places given time (I wasn’t there when people left Digg en mass for Reddit, but I highly doubt it happened in days, or even a year or two), I can’t help but also look at those that went back and think “Would have been better if yall just cut the cord and left Reddit behind completely” because it’s not changing.
Regardless, he was right about not giving a time limit when drawing a line in the sand
Digg was fairly unique because it was practically over the course of days but the redesign was really THAT bad. Imagine one day you log into Reddit and it’s now indistinguishable from Mashable
