    I’ve been on reddit for a couple years before the flood from Digg. The quality of content and especially comments went down right then, and never recovered.

    Personally I skipped Digg entirely.

      Depends entirely on the subreddit, in my experience. Places like AskHistorians didn’t even exist when the great Digg exodus occurred. My favorite sub was /r/cfb which also benefited greatly from the mainstream popularity.

      Not coincidental that both of these are relatively strongly moderated compared to many of the biggest/default subs.
