    Digg was nowhere close to as big as reddit is now.

    Look at all the dumb shit twitter has done and it still is a gargantuan platform. Like it or not, these platforms aren’t going anywhere.

      Very few people actively delete their accounts, but platform eventually die if they can’t attract the next generation (young users). Less than 20% of the youth use Facebook for example, because they don’t want to be in the same platform as their parents watching them, it will be a long painful day death. Same thing can happen to any platform.

          Just because it’s profitable now, doesn’t mean it’s going to be the case in the future or be sustainable (example, fossil fuels).
