Alexis Ohanian and Kevin Rose, co-founder of Reddit and original founder of Digg respectively, are set to relaunch Digg as a mobile-first platform with AI content moderation features. The revival comes after Digg's decline following a controversial update in 2010, which alienated users. With early access already attracting over 175,000 sign-ups, the new Digg aims to reinvigorate its community. Ohanian's venture capital firm and Rose's partnership with True Ventures have backed this initiative, and Justin Mezzell will lead as the new CEO. The goal is to merge past successes with modern technology to enhance user experience.
The partnership between Alexis Ohanian and Kevin Rose seeks to revive Digg with a focus on AI-driven content moderation, aiming to restore its former glory.
In the early 2000s, Digg was revolutionary, allowing users to vote on content, creating a dynamic news platform that peaked with 40 million unique users.
