You missed out. I graduated high school right when digg was peaking. It was a more innocent time. I've been through two social news migrations.
It's a shame that the reddit community couldn't get as organized as the digg community was when it came time to leave. The entirety of digg picked a day, and we all moved to reddit at the same time. I kid you not, the entire digg community fucked off all at once. I wish the same thing would have happened for Lemmy.
