DiggDown1

News aggregate Digg recently redesigned their website, adding personalization options and the ability for companies to automatically submit feeds/articles, becoming a little more Twitter-esque. Lastly, it removed the ability to "Bury" links/articles that a user didn't like, shortened summaries about feeds, and made it harder to distinguish which posts are adverts. Many users voiced their disgust for the redesign, and have complained that Digg went "Corporate." Furthermore, they joined competitor Reddit, and collaboratively uprated Reddit's stories on Digg's pages, such that Digg's front page is almost redirecting every link to Reddit's website.

Reddit's gotten a kick out of the added support, and even redesigned their logo to look more like Digg's given the current scenario.
