Transparency is the only trans I’m down with

IT'S NOT TRANSPARENT!

Ugh!

When not logged in, Voat displays default subs without NSFW content.

There are TWO different voats now!!! Voat is essentially not voat unless you have an account.

I have never had a reddit account in my life and never had a slashdot account in my life. Not ever.

There should be a warning for lurkers that voat has gone private if you are hiding news articles from people not logged in!

One voat for lurkers hides all news articles with the word "Nigger" or Kike"!

Lurkers not logged in (a lot of voat members lurk for months or years) will not get to see the real voat.

The default should be NOT to censor news post titles of lurkers not logged in!!!

If this was done your way it would open up accusations that Putt was requiring an account in an attempt to data farm. Methinks you would be crying about something like this if he went this way. Eat shit.

I think you misread my words, your logic is backwards in what you typed. read what you typed carefully. Then read what I typed. You realize that literally as of right now Putt is requiring an account to see the real voat, and for example is hiding news submissions with the word "kike" to lurkers. I have been a lurker on reddit and slashdot each for a decade. I would be horrified today to learn comments and articles on slashdot were hidden from lurkers with no visible indicators.

You have limited reading comprehension by claiming I should eat shit when you have NO IDEA the concept being discussed. At wrost, there needs to a be a visible NSFW toggle on lurkers screens that is static their entire session and VISIBLE STATE when alterred that clearly indicates censoring of news is enabled or disabled.

Potential to censorship doesn't mean it is happening. I'm a bit mixed on this myself as regular voat at work causes 0 issues for me. Maybe suggesting a NSFW filter in the right place would be the best option. I would word it better though as grammar and spelling are clearly not your strong suit.

TheTrigger ago

You're right, that bit threw up an instant red-flag, in my mind. I get the premise, and can appreciate the sentiment. I'd be more comfortable if voat had the default for non-signed-in accounts set to hiding NSFW content. But at least offer a toggle on the main bar, and give people the option to shut it off, without needing to sign in. That should be easy enough to code in a couple of seconds.

I welcome the change, this will improve voat's image and thus popularity. At the same time, we retain the faggot control internally.

CriticalCore ago

What's the point in sharing an image of voat that's not true? That's if what people see on the outside is not what real content there is on the inside.

ForTheUltimate ago

trick more normies into getting redpilled. tbh the redpills on voat aren't very deep anywyay.

CriticalCore ago

So we should lie about what the site really is just to trick people into getting "red pilled." It's much more easier to just show them an edgy JQ meme when they load up the site if that's the goal.

shawnfromnh69 ago

No, disagree. I think all volitile stuff should be censored so we don't have a bunch of SJW's can't just cruise in and copy anything so they can say Voat is so bad and no one should be able to go there. I think censoring non users views might be a good thing.

SteaksUSA ago

This guy gets it. I like how the Voat goats sheep are also butthurt when I mentioned this: https://voat.co/v/Voat/2850767/15011272

ratsmack ago

It's not censoring... Mr drama queen.

CriticalCore ago

If it's not just removing pornographic and gore content from everyone's view, then what is it smarty pants? Should saying nigger and kike be treated equivalently to posting gore to those not logged in?
