I still go to Voat and am still a member but, Phuks has really siphoned the cream-of-the-crop from Voat, relative to content posting and maintaining a great board.
I was just on Voat, getting ready to post something about vile property tax laws perpetrated upon the citizens of Cook county, U. S of A and as I looked and read some posts I just said "forget it, I'll try another day."
It's been an aggressive echo-chamber for a while. An anti-reddit.
A symptom of binary politics, in my opinion.
There is still good content and users to be found, but too much garbage to sift through, for me. It also has a chilling effect on reasonable discussion between opposing ideas.
