Yeah that's kind of why I'm here. Voat is pretty much useless unless you're a right-winger specifically looking for right-wing political content, and even then much of it reposted or inflammatory fake news. I am a right-winger but like you said Voat is an echo chamber. What's more I could not recommend Voat to my friends because they would probably see the frontpage and think I'm crazy.
I'm definitely open to a board that still has quality political content that affirms free-speech, but one where it isn't everything, and there's other quality apolitical content on the frontpage. Even from a purely political perspective, platforms don't get popular when they host purely political content, they get popular when they host quality content.
