It’s getting hard to remember when Reddit was just that little weird link sharing icon on articles that few people (relatively speaking for the time) bothered with. Digg shitting the bed gave Reddit the push it needed to become recognisable.

Funny now that Digg exists solely as a ‘frontpage’ full of clickbait titles and a ‘community’ made entirely of comment boxes. Yet it perseveres in its own little corner.

Now we have Reddit in the place of Digg and the fediverse in the place of Reddit - history really does repeat itself.
