If you ask any digger on digg now it seems you’ll get a response from them saying the new digg sucks or it’s a copy of twitter/facebook. Not too many people are happy with them releasing it and also, when it went live, the site went out so many times and it gave off so many errors. This has to be the worst launch for an updated version of a site than anything… The Diggers are starting to protest with facebook pages, blog articles, tweeter/facebook updates and now users are starting to spread images around.

Tons of diggers are spreading around this image on digg and titling it “Kevin Rose, Do the Right Thing!”

Over 30 (UPDATE: Now over 50) people have submitted this image and it continues to grow… Do the users have a plan to get the old digg back or a slightly better updated version of the old one or will digg ignore it all? So far no one was banned for this protest (which would be even worse to digg) or no word from kevin rose or anyone from digg… Looks like the digg protest have begun!

All this negative impact from the new digg could vastly destroy the site if it hasn’t already but then again, publishers is what all that matters for the new digg and may continue to grow… A lot of diggers already started to leave and moved to reddit.com or other social news sites…

If you want to take part of the image protest yourself, just download and upload the image posted in this article and title it something like “Kevin Rose, Do The Right Thing!.”

Thanks for reading!

UPDATE:
Check this page to see how much this image has spread and how many diggs they received… (some people labeled the image different so not all of them will show up)
