The popular news platform Digg, which phased out its reader feature some years back, is set to revert to its classic format and be under ownership that’s well recognized by its users. Co-founder Kevin Rose, in partnership with Reddit co-founder Alexis Ohanian, has secured the rights for Digg with the intention of restoring it to its past splendor.
In a recent development, the official account for Digg’s X division shared a video, heralding a new chapter in Digg’s evolution. Previously at odds, Kevin Rose and Alexis Ohanian are now joining forces to shape a fresh direction for the platform. The exact sum paid for Digg during acquisition remains undisclosed, but it was facilitated with assistance from True Ventures, a venture capital company. In a statement released by Rose, he revealed that Artificial Intelligence served as a key motivator in acquiring Digg.
