I've been thinking for quite some time about this and I think we should have a little chat about it. Since we migrated from reddit the community never really got back to its normal high activity self. In the early days of the migration voat wasn't as good as it is today from both the users and mods perspective. A lot has improved and I think we need to look at voat in general to get a feeling of where we should take this sub.
On reddit there was a great need for a place like /r/european. Where people could speak openly about topics silenced by the mods of /r/europe etc. But here the political subs etc. are very uncensored and thus the service we provide seems a bit useless. Therefore I think that it would be good to take this sub into a more nationalistic direction. There's a lot of subs to talk politics and news in but few where you can talk about nationalism, nationalistic interests in Europe etc. Considering that 90% of the people who came over from reddit are nationalists I think we can do way more by catering to ourselves rather than just being a free speech zone.
I know some of you don't like the idea and it is why I want everyone to speak their mind. But I'm personally just tired of seeing the community not be active, and it makes me, the mod team and old users alike lose interest. It's a bit of a shitty spiral where everyone is demotivated which means that we don't live up to our full potential.
So what is your opinion on changing the direction if this sub?
