Hi.

No spam, high quality shitposting, you can have an actual discussion without being caught in the middle of a circlejerk and we have pretty much all of Voat's features except ours actually work - Most Of The Time™.

NSFW content is disabled by default, go into your options to turn it on, and also enable experimental features for live updates on votes and posts on all/new. I think notifications refresh automatically without that option enabled now.

Welcome @ZetaReticulan. I'm Red.

These reasons by PMYA, along with the particular individuals here, are the primary reason I come here. I've had a few high-quality discussions here and there that have honestly given me something to think about in regards to certain values I hold, and I personally feel less "exposed" (for lack of a better word) than I would be on Voat or Reddit. The smaller community - to me, anyway - helps foster a certain closeness and intimacy I wouldn't feel on the other sites. So that's a big part of why I like it here too.

I'll give this place a go, for whatever reason, I can't retrieve my account on Voat anyway so I might as well give y'all a go.

Activity is way slower here than other aggregators, mainly as a result of nobody sharing the site publicly because it is still being put together.

If you know any users from other sites who might be interested in Phuks, send them a message. More activity is good, but it is important to keep the userbase at a manageable level of toxicity, which is why nobody here links to it on Voat.
