What did they do this time? (announcements)

submitted ago by Atko

Voat is currently getting hit with a huge amount of traffic as a direct result of recent changes happening over at that other place.

Everyone, we’re sorry. We’re both sad to see what we once loved change in this manner, but we’re also excited about the future, but our future won't be traveling down this same path.

We won’t be getting any sleep tonight (again) and we are doing everything we can to handle the traffic.

Our budget is limited but we’ll make sure to fight to the last penny in order to keep Voat alive for this community. If you want to donate, well, now is the time. Our bitcoin address is 1C4Q1RvUb3bzk4aaLVgGccnSnaHYFdESzY.

Atko, on behalf I all the users here I want to thank you (and your partners) for making whoaverse. I am happy that voat is gaining popularity and we are thankful that you follow the FOSS software philosophy. You would make Stallman proud.

All we ask is that you stay safe and if possible, to disclose any FISA requests or shady offers that you may get. As voat gains momentum, someone may try to buy it and it will go down that dark road...
