About 30 minutes ago this story hit the front page of Digg. Now I can't find it anywhere...

The main thing that keeps me from loving Digg is that there's no way to block users and their submissions. If only I could block the small number of spammy accounts making up 60% of the front page - and then see the next most popular stories instead!

Can't you just make a new Digg front page with their API + some RSS + hackery?

A user creates an account and can then create filters for the stories that appear on this new front page you make, otherwise it's a total mirror content wise. heck, direct the links over to Digg instead of the original sites to head of criticism.
