on voat 100 votes meant something 300 meant another 500+ something else

posts barely break 30 on free speech sites. news goes by unnoticed. slide thread operations?

unsourced rumors linger without debunking

Can anyone notice a difference in poal since voat arrived? cause it doesnt feel like voat arrived.

a few years ago i used to be someone who would find main headlines and try to be first to post. then i found that others were competing to do so i was happy to turn over the reigns in more creative pursuits.

maybe its just the holidays? maybe voat going down has had a strong demoralization effect?

if my post gets moved thats ok

We were assigned targets and released into the wild. I got poal. Which is ok if I listen to ministry extremely loud.

im liking this place much better but i only joined voat a month before it closed

voat loved to downvote bomb people, i suspect there was a group of power uses manipulating the site to drive new people away, it the smart thing 3 letter agency to do really, voats system was very easily gameable and if they just larped as nazis and downvoted new people they would push them back to main stream social media, i suspect the reason voat closed down was because it just stopped working, new people where staying after being downvote bombed and means the larping agents are just going to be radicalising more real people so the plug was pulled, not really sure about this site yet but it seems alright, i think the reason for so many people wanting to change the rules on downvoting is so they can start to control this site, currently its harder to censor a post

and yeah, we are still in holiday season, i suspect rural america makes up a big part of voat and poals userbase and if they went to visit family over the holidays they still might not be back yet, hopefully some of the voat refugees went back to more mainstream platforms to wake people up, personally im just going add decent comments like back in the old days of reddit to make this place a better alterative

Voat was great. It had geh days but not too many to run everyone off. Most people that couldn't handle it found out during the standard welcoming ceremony and left. It took me about a month to understand voat's schizophrenia.

The lat 6 months of voat were pretty dark

All rational discussion was shouted down by drive-by rascist comments.

Legitimately had more discussion on here the last 24 hours then I had in weeks on voat.

This place "news" seems to be a lot more opinion sites and rumors though.

Har to tell what's spam propoganda, straight up bullshit, or legitimate news

Assume the first two, it’s the most accurate.

I know it was anti thought for awhile but voat lost the few people that would actually discuss things in the last 6 months

Poal is unuseable because of the heavy handed moderation by literal retards

[–] [deleted] • 5 pts

You've been here for 5 minutes, but Poal is unusable... who's the retard?

[–] • 1 pt

The mods who move posts out of whatever are the retards.

[–] [deleted] • 5 pts

I think that the mods/admins on Poal try to keep this place from becoming a garbage dump, which is a good thing.

[–] • 2 pts

I'm a voat immigrant, so I have no idea about heavy handed moderation here. Hoping it's not something that becomes frequent.

Planning on staying here. Not sure where other goats have spread to, but decided to call this place "home" for the time being.

I feel ya, Ive been lacking the same sense of missing out on things. Voat used to always give me breaking geadlines and analysis and I dont feel that gere. Either Voat has been splintered or demoralized but I miss the old days.

I've been doing my best to debunk the wilder claims about the virus. However, just like people on the far left, some people on the far right absolutely refuse to listen to reason. They're too far gone.

Hi Faggots. I made it.

Voat was scattered to a number of different sites. Not sure how many daily active users we had, but probably less than you'd think. The flood of "hi, I'm a refugee" posts don't necessarily translate to active users.

Some people will be discouraged by the small amount of traffic on Poal. But it will increase, so goats should hang in there and contribute.

Do you even know what Poal was like before? As someone who has been here for a while, I can easily notice a difference.

[–] • 0 pt

The difference I've noticed between Voat and Poal is that Poal works, and much of the time, Voat did not. Also, I miss the downvote button -- I mean, we've still got it here, but we can't use it, so what is it good for?

People have said over and over what it's meant for. On Poal, we try not to suppress opinions we dislike. It can be difficult to either form a counterargument or move on from what you disagree with, but it's a more mature way of doing things.

Then don't have one? Add a "spam" or "report" button?

That's basically what saidit does; upvoat is two points and downvoat or "funny" is one, and the report button is about where Voat's was. Saidit is teh ghey though.
