Been going there a couple years, it's just not the same. We used to converse, sometimes argue but it was usually civil. Now it's just a popularity contest with who can say nigger the most. Anyway, I'm going to give this place a try hopefully I can chill here in my free time.
I still love the idea of Voat. As a big free speech advocate, a (mostly) censorship free site with little heavy-handed moderation is what I want, but it just never really took off other than the hate subs. I was hoping after the election things would get back to normal, but it has gotten even worse. The non-political subs have slowed down to almost nothing. If it wasn't for Owlchemy, they would all be dead. I blocked so many subs, but even still the circle jerk spread into everything. I got tired of all the negativity and gave up. I wish them luck and hope the site stays up. There are still some good people posting over there and I could still have the occasional good conservation. I will probably check back in a few months and see if anything has changed. I'm glad I found this place. I recognized many old goats that I hadn't seen in a long time. This place has potential. The best thing is that even though there is much less content, the stuff I see is usually high quality. I don't have to sift through a bunch of stale, predictable nationalist posts to find something interesting.
