Mixx was an awesome community at its peak. Neither Digg nor Reddit nor any of the rest of them ever had a community as sophisticated as was the one at Mixx from its inception through about late 2009-early 2010.

I’m sure going to miss it. Watching the spammers take it over, rapidly engulfing the social media site I called home in deadly spam, ultimately seizing it away from the soon-to-be refugees who had failed to heed the evacuation order issued by Mixx in January hurt like hell.

Waiting to see the new product but still reeling from the destruction of all the content we created over those years.

Something is going on and it is a bit weird as Mixx is only a digg clone. There are lots of them. I think Earthfrisk.com has a lit more features that you see right from the homepage, yet pligg the open source software is used for both. Digg is great and will stay the king in my opinion, just that the hype of a site that is less than other semi clones like earthfrisk seems a little stupid. Not that I’m saying this site is, just be careful of who we all get information from. Refugees from Digg or any site always bad mouth that site. That doesn’t means we should follow them.
