Are all links on Digg nofollow as of today?
Noticed something interesting today.
Every outbound link I tested on Digg appears to be marked as nofollow.
No announcement. No docs. No changelog.
This raises a few real questions:
• Is this a temporary anti-spam measure or a permanent policy shift?
• Are exceptions planned for trusted users or communities?
• Is Digg repositioning itself away from SEO value toward pure discussion and discovery?
I am not complaining. Platforms evolve.
But for builders, publishers, and founders, this changes how Digg fits into the distribution stack.
Curious what others are seeing.
If you have data, experiments, or inside context, share it.
