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.

Old question but by any chance we can support you in some way? Appreciate taking money for running an 'edgy' site has its own complications.

My understanding is the funding for the site was removed?? By credit companies or something?? Someone else can offer more insight.
Pretty sure there's a bitcoin donation but I don't remember how to access it.

Yea I don't know if that wallet is still active, but all the payment processing companies (think PayPal) have rejected voat.
Last I heard there was an "angel donor" who put a ton of money into voat. But that was at least a year and a couple months ago.. Right after we almost went bankrupt.

This is going way back but didn't paypal seize nearly 30k from Atko?

It was for the stupidest reason too, because Voat hosts porn.... Reddit does too, so wtf?

I thought some cunts uploaded CP and informed paypal of it immediately after they uploaded it.
Dirty trick.

I feel like Voat needs to get itself some serious legal protection against that. They surely can't be responsible for something like that, right?
It's not like if someone started a new subreddit and immediately posted cp and reported reddit, reddit would actually suffer for it.
