If it's good content, bring it on! It can only help the community.

This came up before, and a commenter pointed out that all sites like Reddit and Voat are news aggregators, where there's extensive posting of content found elsewhere on the net. The idea being that people find interesting things and bring them here.
So whether something is found on Reddit or comes from some other source doesn't matter. If Voat (or Reddit, for that matter) depended entirely on original content from the content's creator, there would be much less here to entertain and inform us.
I thought it was a good point. I'll mention that in my view, the 'personality' of Voat will determine what people choose to bring here and post, and I'm fine with that.

Seems sort of lazy to me, but at the same time, there are posts from Reddit that I never saw (didn't spend enough time there) that I will upvoat if they seem worthy. It's kind of a wash.

I don't visit Reddit much (just a couple small subs) so I don't mind the reposts at all.

Since my gripe with reddit is ideological, I just want it to die already.
Steal, repost, whatever. I don't care. All I want is the ability to post my thoughts without a thousand needledicked mods censoring me for wrongthink.
