What's weird is....I use voat in a Virtual Machine, Brave browser with a fuckton of extensions. I just unpacked chrome on my VM...no extensions and it worked the very first time. Could be Brave...could be an extension. Our enemies use them too so maybe Putt and team are working something on the back end. Maybe not.

(Theory, since I don't know the particulars of the Voat set-up)

You normally get a different 'session' cookie on each instance of a browser. Each session cookie gets routed to a particular backend server (may or may not be different). If that backend server happens to be overloaded, you're out of luck for the browser(s) using that server.
