Like, the site owners/employees/admins/mods are the only ones who choose what to post(and hopefully not extremely bias and a good spread of topics), but the users can still upvote/downvote the post as well as comment and all that?

I like the aggregation mark down style of these sites, but I am not sure about the curation being purely user based. I am curious if the users having a large majority control of the curation hurts the quality, and I’d like to see comparisons if they exist.

    Oh shit, Digg is still around and basically what I was curious about

    Sadly, looks like the news/tech topics are pretty dead user wise, but maybe I just need to explore it better to understand.

    Appreciate it, curious if the post selection is better or worse than the popular forums.
