Did Reddit get massive because of Digg users making a beeline towards them or were they already big before that?

    For more interesting and easily discoverable content. Really that’s what people want at the end of the day.

      Exactly. I hate Reddit more than most people here (I’m a mod on a sub that has more than a million subscribers and felt disrespected by spez), but the fact of the matter is they’re the gold standard of quality answers and discussions.

      I would want Lemmy to get to that level, not immediately, but that’s the dream.

      I want lemmy to become popular just so you can be quoted in news articles. User “fist eye mouth eye fist” wrote that…

      Or just have 🤛👁️👄👁️🤜 appear in reputable news outlets.

        By the way why are people able to do that? I see that person’s username is mojo by hovering over it but at a glance it’s just emojis.
