You guys know the Voat drill when Reddit bans something:
Single file lines!
Voat is too broke to get real servers so we must take turns. We must act civilized and share in an orderly fashion or else it just ends up looking like a Black Friday nightmare around here and no one wants that.
So pick your time slot and stick to it, no cheating. Everyone has a 30 second window to Voat. Go.
Sorry about the downtime and slow responses, it's the best we have in Free Speechland at the moment.
Edit:
I hate receiving donations for a few reasons but here is Voat's BTC address if you feel called to donate: 3NZvuAk3Csf1UP1KCmzN9dhiXTwvhTgr9k. Please only donate if you have the means.

Hey, Putt.
Still genuinely not sure if we can trust you, but we've estimated that advertising the great awakening subverse will bring in something like ~300 thousand people.
Do you think you could sustain this capacity in the future?
You've never really enjoyed responding to me before, but I'm here to help the community, not necessarily any one person. If you want to make shit personal, go ahead. But, I'm genuinely trying to help everyone out here. I'll PM you the link to show you what I mean when I say we've estimated our advertisement will likely rake in such a number if you so choose, so you know I'm not full of shit. By the way, all you responding really does is confirm things for us. The transition is likely to take place regardless.
Cheers!

I'm glad you don't trust me. Seriously.
We all suck at times so I'm sure you've had valid issues with me but I have a short memory so have none with you.
I'm so slammed still writing code so don't know how to answer you best, but Voat's main scalability issue is that of money.

I'm not exactly sure I was looking at the right figure before.
It's estimated that 52-58 million will regularly track the phenomenon. We've put together that we can account for something around maybe 200k at most. I'm sure qanon.pub and qanon.map will take a huge brunt of that estimation. But, I'm not about to overlook an estimation that still very likely falls at around the 20 million mark.
By the way, you enjoying such a thought certainly helps you out. Keep it up.
If you'd like, I can keep you updated and even potentially act as a go-between to get you to the people that are actually doing all of this thinking. There are currently several other considerations, with your service being the primary back-up. Although, since you don't seem to be handling it all that well currently, it seems to have quite a few people worried that there isn't an alternative option.
