The biggest self own in this is that they are saying LLM bots killed them while they were using LLMs for many of their own functionality.
If digg had written a fediverse compatible app, things could’ve turned out way differently. But they wanted to create a new, disconnected garden and there’s no appetite for that.
This didn’t happen years ago?
