Did Reddit get massive because of Digg users making a beeline towards them or were they already big before that?

One thing I’ve also seen people mention that could help is weighting the hot and active algorithms to prioritize smaller communities on the home feed. I remember that Reddit’s algorithm did that and it made it significantly easier to see content from communities that weren’t just the largest memes and news communities.
I don’t think there’s enough engagement in those small communities to make that viable yet. It’d just be sprinkling in dead posts.
