The thing that makes me think this is how remarkably identical all of the user interface to voat looks like compared to reddit in 2016. The code is nearly exactly the same. It's immaculate. That makes me believe that the creators of voat must have had some of the reddit code to begin with.

This is actually a mossad self help forum.

That’s not a conspiracy Atko even stated he directly ripped Reddit’s code, just like Poal then ripped Voat’s code.
That part isn’t a conspiracy.
Also, you are to young to remember Atko so this theory is largely Bs because you don’t know this sites early history and users.

How do presume to know my age?

Cause you didn’t deny my comment nor are you aware that Atko and the Og’s talked frequently about the Reddit script that was used and how to improve on it and make Voat unique and more democratic.
So you are no older than 2 years max

Yes, I agree.

In 2016 Reddits code was still open source. So yes the code would have been available to the creators.

Wow that's a major red flag that they closed sourced it.
