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.

Adding the option to open links in a new window would reduce your server load.
On my phone, from the homepage, I click a link, then I click back to go back to voat, voat homepage will not load b/c the server is over loaded. But why am I loading the page again??
Ironically, this is already implemented. Logging into my OLD voat account, where there WAS an option in settings to open links in a new window (and of course I selected that), I click a link and it opens in a new tab, then I click back and it just closes the tab and takes me to the previous one, voat's homepage, without reloading it and putting load on your servers.
