In line with our userbase growth (I think we flew over 100.000 accounts), we need to scale up various quotas we had in place. Up until today, users were limited to 10 upvoats per 24 hours if their CCP was lower than X. I just bumped this limit to 100 upvoats per day. Let's see how it goes.
Also, we are working hard on optimizing our existing code before throwing your donation money at more servers. And yes, my vacation is no longer a vacation even though I am still away from home, we're way past that point now. I am putting all my time on handling this influx and I want you guys to know that I won't be able to relax until voat load time goes down to under 1.5 seconds.
Edit: you can try upvoating this announcement post to test if the limit increase works (hehe)

Atko, thanks for all the time you're putting into this site!
I'm working on an extension for keyboard shortcuts. LMK if you want to chat about usability and stuff.

I feel kind of bad now that I know we've ruined his vacation.

You may have seen it already, but /v/voatdev for all the, well, voat development and bug reporting. They may be interested in your work if you want to help them out (I don't know, I'm new here too, I'm just trying to help along).

Please consider contributing code directly to Voat! Part of its strength is extending features to all users instead of relying on extensions like RES.
There is an existing Github issue for keyboard navigation (#54).

That would be awesome!
I think an extension is the best way for me to iterate for now. When it's more fleshed out, I'll set up a local server and work on integrating it and adapting it to other browsers.
