Robert Kevin Rose (born 1977) is an American Internet entrepreneur who co-founded Revision3, Digg, Pownce, and Milk. He also served as production assistant and co-host at TechTV’s The Screen Savers. From 2012 to 2015, he was a venture partner at GV.
Kevin Rose is in charge again? I thought he sold Digg after the massive failure that was v4 back in 2010.
Either way, I’m glad to see that digg is coming back. Reddit needs more competition. I’m hopeful that they will succeed this time around and steal back the user base that migrated to reddit and helped make them become the evil giant they are today (I am one such migrant).
Digg is still alive?
It’s going to re-launch soon
And the Apollo developer is apparently consulting on the mobile experience in one last “fuck you” to Reddit.
Lol, if they don’t blunder it i might actually check it out here and there just as a fuck you to reddit
Curiosity and nostalgia will definitely get me to check it out. I enjoyed digg before the v4 explosion that drove everyone to reddit.
Why would you? We have Lemmy now.
Yeah they just had some bugs last go around and needed a bit of time (give or take 13 years) to fix them.

They’re joining the fediverse.
So did facebook… Deny the parasite engagement
Did they actually say that?
No
lol. About 10 (maybe more) years too late
What is dead can never die
That is not dead which can eternal lie, and with strange eons even Digg may come back.

It died so hard it underflowed and came back to life. Poorly most likely.
It was restarted in like the last year.
I missed out on Digg and started right with Reddit, if it is alive or back, it would be a fun experiment (or maybe not a fun one).
No.
Rose just bought the name back. It’s relaunching soon.
