I don’t remember what caused the Voat’s origin, except it involved Reddit HQ. And then it went under in 2020.

What’s different about this time and with Lemmy to make it a feasible alternative to Reddit? Is it random chance?

      There’s not nearly enough supers and dupers in your comment.
      IIRC the_donald users tried to go there and quickly had to run away crying, they’ve got bullied hard.

      The tankies that made Lemmy are bad too, it’s why I went with a Kbin instance after looking into options. Luckily thanks to Federation it’s easy to connect with users across instances of both.

        So, luckily you can still be connected to the tankies you don’t like?

          Then don’t federate with that server?
