Now that I have your attention, I have a confession to make: I lied.
Well sort of… because Voat 2.0 doesn’t exist yet, but it will in the future, and this thread is the first in a series of Quarterly Reviews we will be doing to get your feedback on what we need, what we need to improve, and the direction we need to move as a company and as a community.
I can finally announce that Voat’s features (software-wise) are now in the ballpark of a semi-functional platform. I’m not saying Voat is perfect, nor am I saying the features are mature, rather I am saying that we are nearing "acceptable" as a basic functioning platform.
But a basic functioning platform was never our end goal, it was just the first milestone we needed to hit. Now that we are approaching this milestone we need to lay out our future direction.
Voat doesn’t want to be a “clone” any longer. We want to stand up and proclaim our uniqueness. We want to put our differences on display and stake our future on them. Voat can’t survive without redefining ourselves, without evolving into something bigger, something better, something unique and new.
This is the post where we get to dream big, have no boundaries, no constraints, and live in world where everything is possible.
Hypothetical
You have an army of programmers, mountains of cash to burn, and you are the only board member: What does Voat 2.0 look like?

Not sure if this is the right place for this, but the smaller subs need front page to show posts that haven't been voated on yet. I think subs are dead, go there, and found people have posted but no upvoats have happened yet. Did the RSS thing, and unless they get at least 1 upvoat, it doesn't show in the RSS feed either. If they would show up on front page, they will get voats and would help save small niche subs.

What if we had a "everything but default subverse" list.
8450851? ago
Don't you mean v/all ?
8450900? ago
No because v/all includes defaults and popular subverses. I'm talking about something like v/smallverses. Something basically the opposite of v/all or v/default.
