My voat usage has been diminishing ever since I used this website. I won't ever stop, but it's not as prevalent as it was before.
I've made a few comments, and I posted a song today in my music sub, but while I still browse daily for news, I have very little confidence in how Voat is run. Actually, I've had little confidence since Atko left because Puttitout doesn't communicate anything to the users (and donators who supposedly keep the site alive). Recycled ads from over a year ago, no communication on problems, and a little brigade of people that scour the site to speak for Putt all turn me off to the site.
The news and posts I can't easily find elsewhere in one package, though, that'll keep me browsing as long as it's available. But I'll never donate or invest much time again as long as Putt is running it.

I haven't used it since Puttitout made comment on the outage but still hasn't made an announcement.
Something feels off about that entire situation and I plan on waiting to see what Puttitout has to say before I decide if I will completely abandon Voat.
Plus, I really like it here. The content is great, the community is better and it reminds me of old Voat.
