Not much info yet, but I grew up on Digg, so I’m cautiously optimistic. Probably no Fediverse support, but honestly, any Reddit alternative is a win. Really hoping for real API access and third-party apps.

    Yes, and no English language site other than 4chan has been a larger part of early English language internet culture than ebaumsworld. So many things started there.

        Seriously? It’s foundational to the history of the internet. If an image macro format, what the kids call memes, didn’t start on /b/ it started on ebaumsworld.

          Let’s not forget Something Awful and YTMND now. Should reboot those too. Maybe assemble them all together like Vultron or something.
