Lots of venture capital money behind it. I wonder how quickly the enshitification will begin.

Superior technology does not necessarily mean a superior product. History has plenty of examples where the inferior technology won out because the majority of people don't care about having the best or most advanced technology, they want the easiest, cheapest and (most importantly) lowest effort.

To be clear, I don't think digg is a superior product either, I'm just saying that how good the tech is matters far less than people want to believe. What truly matters is the implementation.
