I assume part of them have moved to the chans. Also, it's mid Nov so I expect any college students are prepping for midterms. There also hasn't been much going on politically, so I'd expect that anybody who is already redpilled is bored and is off having a life.

I think there's enough bullshit going on politicially, but voat has reached such astronomical heights as a safespace that there's little point discussing it here. Talk at a mirror for long enough and you start to feel stupid.
Disclaimer: I may not be able to reply. Unpopular users with less than 10 CCP cannot post, and are temporarily banned as soon as they make 10 comments in a day. Voat does not respect free speech, though past comments have stated an intention to improve things.
Think about how irrelevant that is. "Not all of voat" doesn't matter. Even "most of voat" doesn't matter. All it takes is a small group of asshole accounts to downvote a typical user into the censorship zone.
I don't use the down button for disagreement. Discussion is a very healthy thing. I will often use the upvote for agreement. I will down vote for undeserved rudeness.
I looked up the past 4 or 5 pages of smallpond's comments. He has been generally getting upvotes. I'd looked thru previous comments of his a few months ago, and it was obvious his down votes were extremely well deserved. He was extremely anti-social. I was almost starting to downvote simply by his username. I wonder if something about him has changed for the better, like stopping drinking, or getting into a healthy relationship, or out of a bad one. At this point he still has CCP of -585, so he will be still be quiet for a while.

Not all of voat.co uses the down button as a disagree button. Personally, I use it for spam and people being cunts.
