The Digg Exodus was mainly down to just stupidity on the part of a whole team and the users deciding they weren't going to take it. Rexxit is due to pure malice on the part of one person.
I haven't heard it called Rexxit yet, and I wholeheartedly support the naming convention.
Yep, I don't think it's made it's way to lemmy or kbin yet but I know it's been passed around on mastodon hash tags for the last week or so at least.
