Not my own, not anyone else's. I submit and it vanishes. It never shows up on the new page, it never gets any votes. I had noticed it for a while and decided to do a little experiment. I submitted something from my site and monitored my stats, not one person clicked on it. It wasn't a fluke either. It happened several times. I created a new user name and tried with that one. Nothing. I even used said user name to up-vote my other username's submission. The vote didn't register. I'm not the only one this has happened to either.</p> Unfortunately I can’t submit content to Reddit. Not my own, not anyone else’s. I submit and it vanishes.

Congratulations, you are part of the problem. Imagine a world where no one every sumitted their own work. Artists, scientists, musicians — imagine that they all just kept their stuff to themselves and hoped someone would stumble onto it.

No recording studios. No art galleries. No performances. Oh, and books too. Pompous, if you think about it.

Is that the ideal? Have you thought this through?

It makes me not want to visit Digg more often than every few days. I don't think there's a problem with the content submissions. I think that some users just need to back off from excessively promoting the same web sites over and over, and stop turning to other people doing the exact same thing and say they are regurgitating content that's already been posted, or posting something lame. Just be unique. Don't worry about anyone else's submissions. Like my mother irritatingly told me many times, "Go fry your own eggs."</p> What I don’t understand is why half of the Digg posts are from just a handful of web sites.

I for one, have never found digg to be that valuable to me. It always seems as though the popular content is of little to no consequence to me. It also seems like if I do find good content, it's not very popular. I think the demographic of users has changed, and John Wesley is right when he says that maybe the "purists" need a new site of their own! I also agree with you that self-submission should be encouraged and accepted. In any other type of writing profession, that's what you have to do to pave the way for your work.</p> Nice post.

The reason the content is going down hill is because the audience is changing. Digg and Reddit used to be much more niche oriented. A smaller group of discerning users submitted and promoted content that appealed to them. Now that social media is going mainstream, you see the horrific mainstream taste coming through. Not a bad thing, just a fact of life. The purists will have to build a new site.</p> I agree wholeheartedly with what you say about self submission, but I don’t think that’s the solution.
