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?

    I don’t think that’s a good idea. It’s ultimately up to the admins of instances to keep an eye on those tiny communities.

    Diversity is important, even for speech you don’t agree with – That is the beauty of democracy.

      I disagree.

      “Diversity” does not include–nor allow–bigotry, racism, misogyny, etc.

      Sorry, but that’s not diversity; that’s ignorance and hatred.

        Yes, if they’re being bigotted, feel free to shut them down.

        i just hope you endorse your anti-bigotry for all :3

        but if they’re just a conservative fella following the rules and is being respectful, they have a right to remain.

          That’s my entire point.

          That’s correct. If you can find a conservative person who isn’t bigoted, racist, or misogynistic, then they’re more than welcome.
