A poll is pointless. Just look at the New Digg Launch story - there's like 1600 comments. 1,599 said they f**king hate it and one dude said he didn't mind it "too much" and "might be able to get used to it."
Bottom Right Corner: "Give Us Feedback". Fill it! Fill that!! It's a good poll/questionnaire. Seriously *everyone* if you haven't done that already, DO it.
Hmm... it seems my reply just vanished. Nice job Digg.
Anyway,
BOTTOM RIGHT CORNER: "give us feedback", take the poll/questionaire immediately if you haven't already. It's very throughout, and has stuff like "How much You Like Digg 4? [ ] Not at all ----- [ ] Really Like it" etc...
With all that's at stake, it wouldn't have been that difficult to do user testing with say, even 100 average digg users. Give them a $25 amazon gift card to get their thoughts before going live with the horrible new version.
Who knows, maybe they did, but chose not to listen to them.
a friend of mine told me about digg 3 years ago and in minutes i was hooked...i actually had dreams about surfing digg..do you remember when the "comments" section were indented perfectly..you could tell who was responding to who and subcomments and such...my grandmother could follow it logically.....but i guess what happened was the VC's took over and digg management had no choice but to push on even though they probably knew the users would hate the changes...Kevin should not have rocked the boat...I think he or someone high up got greedy...if i had millions, i would make a site like the old digg...in a heartbeat...
Why hasn't this submission made it to 'Top News in all Topics'? It has more Diggs than some of the other stories there.
New Digg is censoring Digg? Where's the DPers when you need them to promote something?
I think that the new Digg frontpage needs more breathing room around each story. It's too visually noisy. I measured and the new stories are at least 100px narrower and there is 15px less room vertically between each story.
Damn, i just noticed they moved the tabs to the side. I didn't like it when google did it and i sure as hell don't like it now. I've had it on igoogle for more than 6 months and i haven't got used to it. Is it so hard to make it optional?
you should change to protopage like i did, got tired of their bulls**t. if someone can tell me how to block the main banner at the top of protopage it would be highly appreciated.tried to block it with adblock for chrome but it did not work.
I'm just going to go ahead and speak on behalf of all of reddit in telling you that you're not wanted. If are looking for funny pedobear s**t you should probably look else where.
I've been over there for many years, and with each day more and more of you idiots show up. Do you know what killed Digg? You guys did, and by coming over to reddit, you're all going to kill reddit. Your idiocy is a cancer that kills every singe decent social community you join.
Diggers, stay here, in this pile of s**t you've created for yourself, don't be spreading it our way any more than you already have.
I'm pretty sure I Just Dugg...or Up Arrowed.. you. Who knows though.. Since when I click on one of my own comments it takes me to someone else's comment, I may have just up arrowed some random person in another article. Or maybe the up arrow is how you submit a bug, since all those links are now 404s.. WTF happened here?! :(
A whole bunch of us are flocking over to reddit. It's a bit different from the old digg, but it's way better than this half-baked piece of s**t. They even seem to be welcoming us 'digg refugees' with open arms!
it does not matter what people will say in regards to the changes if the user base does not change drastically itself. As long as people keep coming even though they hate the new layout, the execs will continue to make money and will just assume that everyone is just a bunch of whiny bitches and will get over it. Number of people = money, and when less people show up, that means less money. Money talks. I'll come back here and there, but unless it changes, I'll be gone for good.

You're an idiot. Reddit is NOTHING like the new digg. Digg is trying to be a large content aggregator. The f**k, do you think the stuff on reddit would ever show up on digg's front page? Do you think we'd have "Ask Me Anything" sessions with polticians along with ones made by average joes (like the Rave DJ who was caught in the middle of a major drug bust we had today)? Do you think we'd have people being able to whine straight to the admins about today's Marijuana censorship controversy?
You're an idiot if you think reddit is anything like digg. Its the most poweruser-less site on the web.
I've suspected there wasn't really one for quite some time. If you buried something twice by mistake, it would say "You have already reported this story"
I think i dugg this. I want to see who thought this was a good idea, because it took the community right out of the website. Can't follow up on the diggs/buries/ replies of your own comments in one place. Can't see all comments on one page. There isn't an upcoming section, so you have to rely on "friends" which I don't like. I liked the purely democratic system we all saw in upcoming. It let you know who was gaming the system, and gave you a say of what belonged on the front page. Now it's a mystery.
Allot of stuff I use to like to do like see who replied to my comments if they got dugg seem to be gone.
I dont see my old friend the BURY butten anymore.
When browsing new stories I use to see pages now its just that freaking LOAD MORE button on the bottom.
Also choosing the type of stories I wanted to follow was more intuitive instead of following users.
That they should have add as an option and I would not have a problem with it.
I could go on but really what the hell digg is not as fun as it use to be.
It's not going to be a place I use to visit twice a day.
"When browsing new stories I use to see pages now its just that freaking LOAD MORE button on the bottom."
thank you for mentioning this. i dont wan't to click load more 10 times to go back 10 pages. they are trying to be like twitter and facebook with the whole on demand s**t but its stupid...
Not true. They understand what the users want and are changing things to move in that direction. Thus, all "Digg" buttons/arrows shall thus be changed to "Like" Buttons. fixd!
f**k, I tried to "up arrow" your comment but got an error message. I tried to "down arrow" your comment in order to "up f**kING arrow" your comment again but got another f**king error message. f**k. I'm down arrowing myself in the head tonight.
I barely saw you there. Did new digg steal your icon? But don't bother replying -- there's no decent way for me to get back to this comment since the history is gone and the direct links are broken.
If you get over the ugliness of Reddit, it is a great place to go engage in discussion over pretty much the same types of articles that come across Digg. I gave it a try recently, and I am sold. Bye bye Digg.
Unfortunately, they seem to have a really restrictive post-speed restriction. It looks like you can't comment more than once every /ten minutes/?? Sheesh.
Egad. A truly bipartisan consensus. Multipartisan, even. Communist, Socialist, Libertarian, Conservative, Democrat, Republican, Fascist, Xenophobe... we can all unite under the banner of "New Digg Sucks!"
I've actually just been Facebooking. I've already got a large enough circle of friends over there that the reading is never boring. It keeps me plenty busy.
That's false. Reddit has a very easy way to track discussions (better than even the old Digg was) and is much easier to read, despite its generic interface.
i think i would stick with digg if they fix all the problems and by that i mean dump version four entirely and keep the last version (or alteast give us back all those features)
1. Where is the Upcoming section?
2. Where is my Favorites page?
3. Why is the main comments section jammed below my and my friends' comments (which are now out of context)?
4. Where did the highlighting of comments go?
5. Why is the front page being demoted in favor of a glorified Friends Activity page?
6. Why are all of Digg's historical submissions "reset"? For example:
7. Why has nothing been done to stop the f**ked-up reciprocal digging of content by rings of sycophantic power-user wannabes that has taken over the site?
8. Why is it so difficult to see how old submissions are?
9. Why is my username all lower-case now?
10. Why? Just... why?
I've been an active Digg member for more than three years. I've front-paged many stories without resorting to power user bulls**t. I'm now seriously considering migrating to Reddit, permanently.
11. Why in the hell did you remove the BURY Button.
12. Where the hell did my comment history go.
13. Why can I no longer set the types of news I want to follow and instead have to add people to follow WTF?
Just a few other annoyances.
I could probably find more but I am already to annoyed to keep looking.
s**t, I think I was coming up on my fifth year of being here and I came here to post how this would be the last, but I can't say for sure now since digg removed the "joined on..." date. In fact, they pretty much removed *all* useful information from the profile page.
There are some things I kinda like about the new digg, though. I thought having a page of just the profiles I followed (basically all the sites I would visit individually if I had the time) and it was really nice having consistently well-thought-out and well-spelled headlines on one tab, and my "old" digg stuff on the other.
Everything else though is complete s**t. I signed up to beta test months ago, never heard anything about it. Clearly, they should have tested it with far more users since it was practically unusable all f**king day.
EDIT: heh my eyes are so used to that yellow highlighting, I couldn't tell if my post was subtly highlighted in yellow or not. Just my brain pretending digg is still good.
I don't understand why this thread with 190 diggs hasn't hit the front page? Seems odd when it is so easy for sub-30 articles to go straight to the homepage.
Yeah I'm not too impressed by the new digg so far. Most of the chances seem unnecessary. Part of the fun of digg was seeing which stories had been given the most votes for that day...I thought that was the point? A front page built by the whole community, rather than a personalized "news feed" of the stuff that our random assortments of friends have dugg? I'll stick around and give this new version a chance but ungh.
I guess the designers of digg are surrounded by people who are to scared to say what they really think.
Just like M. Night Shyamalan is surrounded by people who are too scared or brown nosing to say what they think of his terrible movies.
I just hope they respond to these bad choices and fix them.
It's not like its the first time this has happened.
I still cant believe they removed the BURY button.
For now I will just downgrade to delicious or something. The new UI here and missing features just makes it to annoying to deal with.

bluecadenzaAug 27, 2010
You're an idiot. Reddit is NOTHING like the new digg. Digg is trying to be a large content aggregator. The f**k, do you think the stuff on reddit would ever show up on digg's front page? Do you think we'd have "Ask Me Anything" sessions with polticians along with ones made by average joes (like the Rave DJ who was caught in the middle of a major drug bust we had today)? Do you think we'd have people being able to whine straight to the admins about today's Marijuana censorship controversy?
You're an idiot if you think reddit is anything like digg. Its the most poweruser-less site on the web.

1. Assume that √2 is a rational number, meaning that there exists an integer a and an integer b in general such that a / b = √2.
2. Then √2 can be written as an irreducible fraction a / b such that a and b are coprime integers and (a / b)2 = 2.
3. It follows that a2 / b2 = 2 and a2 = 2 b2. ( (a / b)n = an / bn )
4. Therefore a2 is even because it is equal to 2 b2. (2 b2 is necessarily even because it is 2 times another whole number; that is what "even" means.)
5. It follows that a must be even (as squares of odd integers are themselves odd).
6. Because a is even, there exists an integer k that fulfills: a = 2k.
7. Substituting 2k from (6) for a in the second equation of (3): 2b2 = (2k)2 is equivalent to 2b2 = 4k2 is equivalent to b2 = 2k2.
8. Because 2k2 is divisible by two and therefore even, and because 2k2 = b2, it follows that b2 is also even which means that b is even.
9. By (5) and (8) a and b are both even, which contradicts that a / b is irreducible as stated in (2).
Q.E.D.
Since there is a contradiction, the assumption (1) that √2 is a rational number must be false.

I think i dugg this. I want to see who thought this was a good idea, because it took the community right out of the website. Can't follow up on the diggs/buries/ replies of your own comments in one place. Can't see all comments on one page. There isn't an upcoming section, so you have to rely on "friends" which I don't like. I liked the purely democratic system we all saw in upcoming. It let you know who was gaming the system, and gave you a say of what belonged on the front page. Now it's a mystery.

When browsing new stories I use to see pages now its just that freaking LOAD MORE button on the bottom.
Also choosing the type of stories I wanted to follow was more intuitive instead of following users.
That they should have add as an option and I would not have a problem with it.

I was planning on that actually but some people were telling me its just as bad as this.

That's false. Reddit has a very easy way to track discussions (better than even the old Digg was) and is much easier to read, despite its generic interface.
quicknameAug 26, 2010
i think i would stick with digg if they fix all the problems and by that i mean dump version four entirely and keep the last version (or alteast give us back all those features)

I blame the Digg Patriots. They neutralized the Bury Brigade so they can spam all the way to the top. It's a hostile takeover.

For once, I can't blame the Digg Patriots or the power users. Digg just buried itself.

1. Where is the Upcoming section?
2. Where is my Favorites page?
3. Why is the main comments section jammed below my and my friends' comments (which are now out of context)?
4. Where did the highlighting of comments go?
5. Why is the front page being demoted in favor of a glorified Friends Activity page?
6. Why are all of Digg's historical submissions "reset"? For example:
http://digg.com/news/politics/Digg_This_If_You_Voted_For_Obama_2
7. Why has nothing been done to stop the f**ked-up reciprocal digging of content by rings of sycophantic power-user wannabes that has taken over the site?
8. Why is it so difficult to see how old submissions are?
9. Why is my username all lower-case now?
10. Why? Just... why?
I've been an active Digg member for more than three years. I've front-paged many stories without resorting to power user bulls**t. I'm now seriously considering migrating to Reddit, permanently.
Closed AccountAug 26, 2010

11. Why in the hell did you remove the BURY Button.
12. Where the hell did my comment history go.
13. Why can I no longer set the types of news I want to follow and instead have to add people to follow WTF?
Just a few other annoyances.
I could probably find more but I am already to annoyed to keep looking.
Jordan117Aug 26, 2010
LOL, I see they fixed the username thing. Too bad that was literally the least of my worries.
ricoduedAug 26, 2010
s**t, I think I was coming up on my fifth year of being here and I came here to post how this would be the last, but I can't say for sure now since digg removed the "joined on..." date. In fact, they pretty much removed *all* useful information from the profile page.
There are some things I kinda like about the new digg, though. I thought having a page of just the profiles I followed (basically all the sites I would visit individually if I had the time) and it was really nice having consistently well-thought-out and well-spelled headlines on one tab, and my "old" digg stuff on the other.
Everything else though is complete s**t. I signed up to beta test months ago, never heard anything about it. Clearly, they should have tested it with far more users since it was practically unusable all f**king day.
EDIT: heh my eyes are so used to that yellow highlighting, I couldn't tell if my post was subtly highlighted in yellow or not. Just my brain pretending digg is still good.
kaiosamaAug 26, 2010
Wow, not only did they get rid of our favorites, but they reseted the historical posts as well?
W-T-F?? Where they thinking?
Isn't that basically like youtube resetting all it's view counts from videos dating back to 2006 back to 0?
Again, wow... I'm at a loss for words on this one.

Yeah I'm not too impressed by the new digg so far. Most of the chances seem unnecessary. Part of the fun of digg was seeing which stories had been given the most votes for that day...I thought that was the point? A front page built by the whole community, rather than a personalized "news feed" of the stuff that our random assortments of friends have dugg? I'll stick around and give this new version a chance but ungh.

I guess the designers of digg are surrounded by people who are to scared to say what they really think.
Just like M. Night Shyamalan is surrounded by people who are too scared or brown nosing to say what they think of his terrible movies.
I just hope they respond to these bad choices and fix them.
It's not like its the first time this has happened.
I still cant believe they removed the BURY button.
For now I will just downgrade to delicious or something. The new UI here and missing features just makes it to annoying to deal with.
