I’m a Digg groundbreaker, just because I wanted to see what the hubbub was about.

It’s definitely not a Reddit rip off, in fact Lemmy is closer to a “Reddit ripoff” than dig.

That said it is definitely being auto moderated by AI and they’re absolutely using AI all over the place but saying it’s “human at the core and tech at the edges”

If you’re on Digg it’s possible to be in regular contact with the devs and they kind of dance around how much AI agents are being used.

That said the AI tldr is actually really cool only because of how horribly it butchers some articles and you get to read wild stuff like JD Vance shooting Trump in the face for peeing the bed because the AI read the ads also.
