Voat will continue to stagnate and/or bleed users so long as it remains an ultra right-wing echo chamber. Full stop. The only thing which might change this would be a sudden surge of users which re-populate non-political subs (and stay here, for that matter), but as things are right now, the only things that get any kind of traction is political stuff; or stuff that can be interpreted as being political (and has the right [huehue] political brand, of course).
It's not even a surprising development, given that Voat plainly is one of the few platforms where you can voice those thoughts, but rest assured, the average normie that might take pictures with his camera and post them on /v/pics or whatnot will simply not stay on a side where 99% of all content boils down to "NIGGERFAGGOTKIKEPEDOMOHAMMEDANISLAMOCOMMUSOCIALISTRAPEFUGEESPIC", while subverses not related to this maybe get one or two contributions a day.

Why the fuck would voat want faggots coming here to post their reddit-tier garbage on this site?
