Inb4 it turns out they bought it to promote an AI that specializes in connection and humanity...

What, me, bitter? Naaaw, what makes you think so?

Digg still exists? I had no idea.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 4 weeks ago

Not surprised as he has mentioned quite a number of times on the revived diggnation show that he would like to have it back. Lets see if he can avoid enshittifying it before it goes up again.
