Yeah sorry about that, I didn't see it beforehand.

I think change in community-orientated websites aren't all governed by the same factors since every site has different admins, users, aspects and content, so despite there being similar aspects between Reddit and Digg, I don't think its absolutely reasonable to use Digg's past to explain whats happenning to reddit at the moment.

I definitely think the only Reddit users who will be joining hubski will be the ones who wish to avoid the ever-growing meme based content, which will most probably be a good thing as these people won't bring the content with the them as they are just seeking a new community which is no longer inundated with teenage boys trying to gain meaningless karma.
