Honestly, I don't think Voat is different enough for most users to switch and many of the same problems that Reddit has, will also show up here. Okay, so supposedly admins here are better, good, but what about subverses moderators? That's the big problem - moderators still have total control over what you're allowed to say. Voat would have a better chance, if it did away with subverses and moderators, in favor of a more free form structure (not saying that I know, what it could be or how that could work).

Reddit isn't too big to fail. You know how I know this?
Because no website is too big to fail.
Look at Myspace. When Myspace was big, it was the #1 website in the world or something like that. Now it's a ghost town. Same thing with Blogspot, Somethingawful, Altavista, etc. etc. etc.
Like all things, Reddit will pass.

It's not a matter of size, it's a matter quality. Right now on /v/all there are several posts from /v/conspiracy and /v/BlackPeopleTwitter, so it looks like vote has quickly caught up with reddit in terms of shit-level content becoming popular.

Reddit it currently the 10th most popular website in the US. It will take a long time for it to fail, but as for Voat I already see it as being successful. Lots of quality discussion and there is an active community.

I think the quality of reddit content will gradually decline, with the number of visitors declining after that. I expect reddit to plunge into a dark age of bad content. The future of Voat however looks pretty bright :)
