So far I have been able to have intelligent exchanges with the users here. Something very rare over at Reddick.
Also, I don't get down voted as vehemently when I express my opinion, even if it is not a popular one. Most people here seem to accept that not everybody thinks alike.
On Reddick, you usually will get harassed, called stupid or be ridiculed.

Dude, I got chewed out yesterday when I mentioned that I wasn't the biggest fan of 4chan when I was posting on an Oregon Shooting thread. It was unbelievable, but nothing that I'm not used to when I'm on the internet.
It was when I had literally the same links for three days on my front page is when I threw in the towel.

yep, you get fucked if you go against the crowd and sell out if you follow the flock

Fresher content. Reddit used to be good, but now you can go days without checking it and not miss anything.

Voat also doesn't sell out to corporate interests. Paid-for topics don't magically make the front page to push an advertising or promotional agenda. Without a corporate board of trustees who need to turn a huge profit, a broader spectrum of discussion is the norm. Ideas and education on topics that don't flow with social justice critics and corporation interest are much more prominent and have an equal chance to be seen by the entire audience of voat.

I do not believe voat is any better or worse than Reddit. In my opinion voat is best when used beside Reddit. I like to compare and contrast between posts and comments. They balance each other. I do prefer commenting on voat due to the lower volume of posts.
