How many of you were using Digg during its prime?

Kale · 2Y

I switched from slashdot to Digg. Digg to Reddit when Digg started censoring the Blu-Ray decryption key (before v4), then was on Reddit until RIF shut down. I’m scheduled to get my 16 year badge this year I think. I haven’t posted or commented since RIF shut down though.

I’m debating whether to sell my account or delete it. $75 could buy a lot of printer filament.

When did you leave slashdot to Digg?

censoring the Blu-Ray decryption key

Interesting. I remembered the key being used for HD DVD, but apparently it was both.

That’s when I left as well and watched their v4 transition from afar.
