Voat will succeed as long as there are users on the site. If it can keep a community then it is successful. It doesn't matter how big that community is. Qualitative posts rather than quantitative posts. Alright I'm going to stop being an elitist hipster prick because I just joined this place :P

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 :)

Why does Reddit have to fail for Voat to be succeeding?

I think a world where both thrive can exist. So far it's shaping up to be two different types of user base. Reddit is more like Facebook these days with the exception of smaller subs and even some of those smaller subs are adopting mod practices that kill the community and openness.

Reddit is too big to fail, just like Digg was. Just like MySpace was. Just like GeoCities was.
The internet is doing exactly what it was designed to do, be a source of uninterruptible, decentralized communications. And websites definitely have a cycle to them.

Chances are, it will. However, it's up to the admins and owners of the site to keep it as it is nowadays.

Reddit has failed. That is why we have more and more people showing up here.
