The official subverse created to allow Voat community to suggest ideas on how Voat can be improved while at the same time allowing people to comment and vote on suggested ideas.
This will make it easier for us to hear what the community has to say and to keep a record of what people wish for.
Please stay on topic.

Archived Headless Voat servers (ideasforvoat)
submitted 4 years ago by onehundredeleven
Since Voat is experiencing a lot of traffic from new users (sorry) and doesn't necessarily have the staff or resources to scale, would a headless version of Voat that users can self-host be feasible? Similar to how online games and VOIP programs have public community server lists, users can host their own servers and have the option to register with the server's IP when creating a new subverse. Voat.co would act as a front-end that would communicate via REST API (with a notification saying that the user is on an independent subverse). This would save on bandwidth and reduce the load on the servers while saving the admins from (potentially biased) moderation and dealing with DCMA requests.
