So I am guessing a lot of us are here because of what's happening at /r/pizzagate. It's funny, every time I check out voat it's because of some weird censorship shit on reddit. Maybe that should tell me something. I think it might be time to make the switch for good. My concern is this: what's to stop voat admins from doing the same thing reddit admins are doing now, even if in the future? Is this the final refuge? Are there other places like this that can serve as a backup or plan B (like this was for reddit)?

I have yet to see the voat admits censor anything. But of course nothing is to stop them from doing it. I imagine one day atko will get a very creepy visit from some threatening people and then the censorship will begin. Which I won't blame him for. He has given us a lot of his time and effort to give us this unsafe space. I don't expect him to risk his life or family to keep doing it.
In other words it's likely it will eventually happen again and we will need to move once more. But hopefully not for a while.
