Anyone remember digg? Digg was a news aggregate site very similar to reddit. Around 2010 they had a site redesign and started manipulating the front page to display content that wasn't upvoted by the community. This pissed off a lot of the user base and there was a mass exodus to reddit - thousands of users.

Ironically, Reddit stated they would never do such a thing and became the haven for free speech and community driven news. Here they are almost 10 years later doing it on a scale exponentially worse than digg and butchering freedom of speech, engaging in advertising - which their platform was built on saying they would never do so, and data mining the shit out of their users.

GG REDDIT PLZ GO AWAY.
