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?

Yeah I’ve already moved on to just enjoying the content and interacting with people. I enjoy the people here and the overall more humble discourse. It’s chill by comparison and commenting is fun. I see myself sticking around.
Same here, and I haven’t made the slightest effort to even find communities I’m interested in so far, either. I think there’s maybe 4 places I’m actually subbed to? For now I’ve been content to just sorta browse .world all and see what interesting communities/posts come up, and that’s been more than enough to keep me occupied content-wise. Sure, I’m gonna make a more concerted effort to find subs to by and large replace my communities on reddit at some point, but I’m actually pleasantly reminded of my earlier days browsing reddit (12 years ago now, which seems unreal) and just stumbling across groups I had no idea existed - especially when they have 🔥memes.
The only subs I’ve blocked so far are the German and French language onrs, as I literally can’t understand them lol
I’ve started to follow some subs, but they’re all pretty random, and honestly I probably wouldn’t have even thought about them if I was on Reddit. Now though? A sub devoted to pictures of rainy days, sure, why not?
