Lots of venture capital money behind it. I wonder how quickly the enshitification will begin.

Interesting, but nah. They launched it before for influencers to join, and I'm not sure how many did. I haven't heard much about it. It sounds like it's gonna be very corporate run. I have no idea what the political climate will be, but there's a lot of big money behind it, so that's not great. I got kicked off Reddit for saying child abusers should be punished more harshly, which says way more about Reddit than it does about me. I don't trust Digg to be any better.
