Reddit is terrible as a website. But it still has the communities that developed there over years, and they are an invaluable resource. They are definitely positioning themselves to pull a Digg, but until the Reddit-killer comes along with a mass exodus (and it doesn’t look like it’s gonna be Lemmy unfortunately) access to those communities will entail dealing with reddit.
I still look at Reddit from time to time, but I don’t see a need to sign in at all. There’s no use contributing anymore
Don’t bother even giving them your traffic, just use a redirection extension to LibReddit.
what does “pull a Digg” mean?
To rapidly lose your userbase to another platform, due to controversial changes to the website.
Named after Digg, which lost most of its userbase to Reddit and is now a shell of its former self.
Digg (a link aggregator very much like Reddit) started pulling similar shit and everyone left for the alternative, which was Reddit at the time.
After everybody left Digg, Read it became the default and after about 15 years they are doing the same things that drove people away from Digg
