    Does anyone remember Voat? Man, that place went downhill real fast.

      I remember it splintering off from reddit. Never went there or checked on it, never heard a thing from it since. What happened?

        It went hard right almost immediately when Reddit banned a couple subreddits like/r/fatPeopleHate and other similarly cheerful places. At least on Lemmy we can just let those kinda servers be in their own little septic tanks.

        It went offline, as do all of those platforms that only cater to one subreddit’s worth of users (especially the edgy ones). But it wouldn’t surprise me if the admin had three letter agencies breathing down their neck and just packed it in.
