I never liked Reddit and rarely used it. You can't even look at the ugly mess of a site. It is so mid 2000's. Blue links? Meme after meme? Pun after Pun? That's all it is.
I tried to upload a trailer doc, did not mark it TRAILER, they had a big discussion between mods on it and when someone mentioned VOAT and I said I would take a look there to see if I could upload my Doc trailer I IMMEDIATELY got a message I was banned from documentaries.

I'm on both really. I am not really upset about the reddit stuff but I also see potential here so I want to check it out. My only concern at this point is the site performance, which is being worked on.

Hopefully I'll be here long term. I like seeing the upvote/downvote counter. I don't like having to go through the initial phase of being limited on upvotes and downvotes. Once the communities grow some, it will all round out.
I came to voat in the censorship mass migration.

I will stay here. But a lot of subreddits that i subscribed to don't have many people migrating to Voat, so i guess i'll use both too until most of them migrate.

That's how I am. I was subbed to a few really small subs on Reddit, that aren't up and running yet over here. Hopefully I can be a part of making that happen. I am only wading until Voat proves to be stable in the long term though.

I can see an inherent flaw with the idea that all Redditors who migrate will be satiated with their experience here. There's a huge lack of content comparably and to be honest, I think many will just visit both sites until the Voat community grows large enough that it is truly a good substitute. It has more potential for growth than Reddit at this point. The U.I. is far better in many respects including, but not limited to, chat interface, voting system, upvote limits (debatable), etc. Also, the lack of censorship thus far has appealed to many. If I was savvy enough with modern social media to deem Reddit a good investment of my money, I would be shitting myself. And, dependent on how the next few months play out I would look to take my investment capitol to a different project.

I will be here and there until voat becomes a little more mainstream, you can't pass the content reddit has with such a low user base and less content creators

When I first started browsing Reddit (admittedly it was only about 2 years ago), everything felt fresh. Now, a lot of the post titles felt clickbaity. Then there was the drama, and the meme trains, and the tired pun threads (which were funny at first, but quickly lost their appeal). That's part of why I'm here. But I also like contributing and being heard.
