and how long are we going to be down?
and that is the whole point of this lockdown? I doubt voat is still under DDOS attack(and even if we assume it is, wouldn't it be reasonable to think that if some forces have been attacking voat constantly for months, they will keep attacking voat forever?), it has been fucking months since we are down.
Owner proudly claims that:
This is where I think the hand of God works in mysterious ways. They next came after Voat, but because of the recent attacks, Voat was inaccessible to those without accounts, thus giving them zero content in which to twist and distort in order to pressure a company like CloudFlare
Am I the only one who thinks this is extremely illogical ? Declaring a victory over hate police because they were unable to 'shut us down'? no shit, they couldn't shut us down, we shut ourselves down. I think owners don't understand that they took us down,for 99.99999% of internet-they took us down, no one but registered users can access voat, I have no access to stats, but I am fairly sure that our already small population decreased even further (and vorse, right now it has zero chance of growth) Voat is nothing more than some well hidden discord group or closed niche community on major websites.
Here comes a question, sure, they didn't shut us down, but what is the point of websites' existence in this circumstances ? Can site owners tell us what goals hate police would have achieved with shutting voat down what they haven't achieved with this self imposed lockdown anyway ? is becoming small closed community group with several hundred people (at best) aim of voat? because if it is, I doubt hate police has anything against that.
and finally, what the heck are site owners planning to do ? Are you guys just waiting it to stop ? or planning to do something? and most importantly, what the heck is the strategy of the website? what is the aim?

Voat is now 100% a honeypot. I had my assumptions before in the past. But there is no doubting it now.
Feel free to keep posting and commenting as you were... We should not fear free speech.
Just know Putt was replaced A LONG TIME AGO.

Long enough that I've used voat for almost 2 years across varying accounts and putt has refused to even acknowledge the very real concerns, he's doing that obnoxious kike bullshit where you ask him a question and he pretends that you didn't ask that question and then the next day the conversation never happened.

I'm pretty sure putt isn't right-winged, and he's simply displeased with the current community. He made voat for free speech before Trump became president, and right-wing became hated. Now he probably sees voat became a monster he doesn't really like, but it's still his baby so he can't hate it. So best thing he can do is neglect it and he probably hopes one day he can bring it up again.
