Given that Digg's content was (at least in theory) community driven, there seems to be some sort of chicken/egg issue here.

The article is poor summary of the interview, which I saw replayed TWiTs live stream. While the quotes are accurate, the interview wasn't really about Digg

I think the presentation of content drove away a lot of users. Many didn't like their new interface. Personally, I left before that because I was tired of the "power diggers" that controlled what everyone saw. It didn't feel community driven any longer.

> at least in theory

no it was not community driven, that was their mistake, that is something a user ends up figuring out and leaves
