Christian Selig, the mastermind behind the popular Apollo third-party Reddit app for iOS, is now stepping into a new role as an advisor for the revamped Digg.
### A New Era for Digg
Earlier this year, Digg’s original founder Kevin Rose and Reddit co-founder Alexis Ohanian joined forces to breathe new life into what was once known as “the internet’s homepage.” With their unique partnership, they’re determined to shake things up in the digital landscape.
### Bringing Innovation to Digg
Selig made waves in 2023 when he took a stand against Reddit’s drastic API pricing changes, which ultimately led to the shutdown of Apollo. Now, his expertise and community-focused mindset are set to bring fresh ideas to Digg, creating a platform that’s not only enjoyable to use but also fosters a sense of belonging.
### Digg’s Quest for Fun
Digg is on a mission to make social media fun again, steering away from the bland content that dominates our feeds. While the platform isn’t fully open to the public yet, they’ve launched an early-access program called “Groundbreakers,” aimed at keeping bots at bay with a small fee that supports charitable causes.
Joining Digg as an advisor, Selig is ready to embark on this new journey, leaving the Reddit API drama behind. As Digg CEO Justin Mezzell puts it, “We’re carving our own path here at Digg, and we’re excited for what’s to come.”
