At times I got all sorts of problems with it, so I'm not using it so much anymore (since Dec last year or so).

Looks that now is working, but I used to get lots of javascript:void (0) Errors

Voat's CloudFlare treats some Tor exit nodes as suspicious, which causes the javascript on Voat to fail to load, which in turn makes voting and replying impossible.

You can request "New Tor Circuit for this Site" (Ctrl-Shift-L) to fix it. Sometimes need to do it a few times to get a good one.

Yea, I noticed back then that the problem is not on my side.. "up there" some big changes were made at the end of last year, bc also YT/google and similar stopped working.. all that almost at the same time. well now these restrictions are a bit unlatched, maybe because corona or they are already gathering info for US elections, idk... if not creating certainly they not want to miss a good opportunity... Browsers-- I guess now the only constant are constant changes, until the one with a real privacy will be built... that will be The real change, now is all only cosmetics.

Download, install, run. It's just a modified Firefox browser that happens to run through tor network.

Set "security level" to "standard" and use noscript if you want to manage what can run.

If you want to take full advantage of Tor, it's better to run this in VMs using Whonix. But just using the Tor Browser is simple and gets you most of the way there.

Security level to standard for the js?

Yes.

The "security level" is a thing they added relatively recently as a built-in solution to replace noscript. But it's shit. And they're idiots for trying to reinvent the wheel. Noscript is an existing, dedicated solution for that and works far better for controlling what JS and other active components you want to allow or block. Their built-in security level breaks too many things, and provides no fine grained control to fix them. So it's best to just turn it off.

TOR blocks the javascript voat uses thereby making the site useless.

It works fine if you set "security level" (the little shield icon) to standard.
