I also used to read Digg all the time, but over time it became a cesspool of pro-microsoft trolling, and I left in disgust. Imagine being attacked every time you expressed legitimate disappointment with vista. I expect we are going to witness something similar this fall on reddit (and even here) when that new polished turd gets released.


Really? I don't remember seeing any pro-microsoft trolling - perhaps it was hidden by the much larger Apple fanboy contingent.


> Really?

Yes, REALLY My memory seems to function better than yours.


Another former Digg user who never saw anything of the sort, and in fact saw far more pro-Apple stuff than anything else.


I think we all understand how selective memory works, but thanks for the reminder.

Let me restate that the pro-microsoft trolls were the reason I left Digg in disgust.


There's something about writing "in digust" in italics that makes me laugh uncontrollably.

Looking through your past comments it is clear that you have some sort of grudge against Microsoft, so perhaps I am not surprised you were downvoted after all.


Well apparently, in your opinion, selective memory only affects people other than you.

In case you didn't know, Digg was my day job from 2004-2007.


Ever been to r/politics? Someone's paying college students to patrol some threads to make sure everyone agrees with the hive-mind. It's fun if you can find a good community.


Proof?
