  Subreddits were added in 08. The great Digg migration was 2010. I feel old.

    Shit, I remember Fark.

    Which was basically what reddit was when it started, fark just stayed that way. I think it’s even still going…

      I never had a Fark account but I remember following them religiously. I remember something about them crowdfunding an arena name for a day about an unsolicited finger in the ass.
