I was around at the time, but I went from /. and/or forums to nothing to reddit. I was also about 5-7 years late to reddit
What were the prevalent reddit like boards at the time doing such that reddit became popular?

What were the prevalent reddit like boards at the time doing such that reddit became popular?
Was there a catastrophic event similar to the Reddit API change that led people to flock to Reddit? Or was it the appeal of the format?
For reference: I started because my friend was browsing Reddit in class and it seemed like something to do. I’m not sure if I represented the general population
I wasn’t around for it, but I understand that Digg was the “it” place until they did something dumb, and then reddit was flooded with Digg refugees. It seems like history is repeating itself, or at least rhyming.
Yeah, the digg v4 move didn’t have identical reasons as now, but it sure felt familar
