Maybe I'm stupid but I don't understand what all the fuss is about. As far as I comprehend, they were trying to take power away from mobs who live out of digging up their stuff to make it to the frontpage. I think they were trying to level the field so everyone has a chance to have their content voted, what's wrong with that?
I left Digg because of this. I was checking Digg and Reddit because Reddit was usually ahead on videos, but I still had loyalty to Digg. This just KILLED any love I had for the site. I hope this fails, I don't want the Internet to be like cable TV with only a few "Channels" supplying all the content.
At least he acknowledged the user directories and promotion algorithms are screwed up, and they're going to fix it. It'll probably be a while before that happens, sure, but at least some fixes are on the way.
I like the concept of Digg v4, and I think most users will. Its only its current implementation that is badly broken, not the driving idea behind it.
He says Digg V4 is powered by the users? I want what he's on.

Reddit is vastly superior to Digg. Digg is a steaming pile of horseshit.
