The situations are vastly different. Digg was nowhere near as popular as reddit, and neither was social media in general. There's a huge majority of people on reddit who don't care about API prices and don't want the old reddit back. They just want to see le funny meme and read made up stuff, they're not gonna jump ship for some drama.

The only ones who care about that and want the old reddit back is us, right here. Which is cool because we have an opportunity to make it before the normies find out about it !
