Maybe my article from a couple of years ago about the relative merits of Reddit and Digg may be relevant: http://lists.canonical.org/pipermail/kragen-tol/2008-January...

It doesn't really explain why Digg has been more popular for the following two years. Or does it?

To be fair though, you could get a similar reddit experience by subscribing only to subreddits you find interesting.

For example, I never go to reddit.com. I go to programming.reddit.com, the subreddit for programming related articles.
