Digg proved that the switching costs to a new link-sharing platform are incredibly low. Huffman is about to find out just how low those switching costs are. He's right in the storm-eye of his Digg v4 moment, and probably only his resignation and complete re-work of the API plans can save the Reddit that was.

Reddit is dead, long live Fediverse.

What if Reddit had an API? That would take some of the guesswork out of scraping.
