Thank you for clearing this up for me. Very much appreciated Sir and good advice!

Nadeshda ago

So in C# how easy is it for someone outside to gain access to the code base and dox users? I am just trying to understand this thread better. Are there special permissions in place? How easy is it?

I would probably be able to answer my own questions given enough time but this just isn’t always available to me.

Nadeshda ago

Pembo had access to Voats code base.

What does this mean?

@Nosfewratsjews see source. Voat code has always been accessible through github.

Nosfewratsjews ago

Putt closed the new code from public view long ago. Thats 2 years old.

Nadeshda ago

It’s still the basis to build on, accessible to all. If I remember correctly it’s straight from Reddit’s code, hence being a clone to start with. The point is if you know how it aint hard to duplicate, right @TerannotTerran ?

Nosfewratsjews ago

Look, I don't want to insult your intelligence, so help me understand why you think 2 year old code is useful in any way with the myriad of security vulnerabilities that would need to be addressed.

2 year old code is pretty much useless. What are you trying to say, exactly?

Nadeshda ago

When Voat went down and Putt went MIA the phuks admins were threatening to use their access to the code base to dox users they didn’t like. I saw all this on their IRC.

Okay have you seen the source to these claims?

I am no tech wizard I am just trying to understand this all...

Nosfewratsjews ago

Why did you ask me about someone elses comment?

Nadeshda ago

Because it was the parent of our conversation, that’s why.

Nosfewratsjews ago

I don't take things Trigg says as dogma.

Nadeshda ago

Definition of dogma

1a : something held as an established opinion

especially : a definite authoritative tenet

b : a code of such tenets

pedagogical dogma

c : a point of view or tenet put forth as authoritative without adequate grounds

2 : a doctrine or body of doctrines concerning faith or morals formally stated and authoritatively proclaimed by a church

Which one I am too tired to read yer mind...

Nosfewratsjews ago

c

Nadeshda ago

Gotcha, thanks for your patience with me today :)

Nosfewratsjews ago

I think you are a very unique personality.

Are you supposed to be some kind of bridge or handler for the SBBH vs. SDBH theater?

Why thank you, I hope :) Yes, I guess unique is a good word here and possibly a bit eccentric can be added to the mix... lol

Are you supposed to be some kind of bridge or handler for the SBBH vs. SDBH theater?

This is a very good question, I don’t know. Clearly, I have always been the type of person that is not bothered about cliques and rather befriends all different types of personalities. I can see the merit of it and have learnt so much from so many different types of people. I do think the theatre and drama these last few months was tiring and often stepped over the line of fun and silliness though which is not how I perceived it to be. I still feel like I know so very little about the actual dynamics of Voat.

So how long have you been on Voat?

Nadeshda ago

Thank you Sir :) that’s what I thought but I am no internet tech wizard like yerself...

Thank you for the speedy reply... :)

Nadeshda ago

The Voat code was freely available and accessible on github if I remember correctly. @madworld @Terannotterran is this true?

Nosfewratsjews ago

I'll give that some consideration.

Locally, for me, is still a breath of (albeit frustrated) fresh air.

Professor_de_la_Paz ago

I participate on all three sites and can verify that there is a good bit of divergence across the board. As far as trust goes, I try to keep it to a minimum and my expectations low.

Nosfewratsjews ago

I feel like it's long past time to pick sides and I fear I choose poorly before now.

Professor_de_la_Paz ago

This is how I understood it to be.

The only big difference between Phuks and Poal (to me) is the ToS.

Nosfewratsjews ago

All 3 glow in the dark at this point.

Themooninthesky ago

Phuks looks exactly like poal wtf?

MrPim ago

I believe Poal was forked from Phuks.

Themooninthesky ago

When I was looking for an alternative to reddit voat popped up. Okay cool. Lots of similar people. Then I saw poal, kinda not into poal. And now phuks, not for me. But why have so many off shoot versions? Money I guess.

MrPim ago

Phuks started (at least if you asked them at the time) because they no longer liked Voat. I tried it for a bit, but it didnt feel right for me(and their color scheme made my eyes bleed). Poal started from a Voat downtime. PMYB decided to make a Voat backup site, and forked Phuks. Ive used Poal and overall its just not for me(ive made my feelings known in the past and dont feel like rehashing it). It looks better than Phuks at the very least. And I think it has more and better features than the last time I visited Phuks(although thats been awhile)and honestly Voat as well(Poaltube, a chat). But than again theres plenty about it I dont like and prefer to stay here.

All that to really say, I dont think either turn a profit at this point. I think the schisms are largely personality driven.

Wazhappenin1 ago

You can get banned from voat? What in Earth can you do to get banned from this site? I thought Anything Goes

Nosfewratsjews ago

Banned from the subs Clammy mods whenever you point out the connection.

Wazhappenin1 ago

I don't want to Tire you but can you explain what clammy is

Nosfewratsjews ago

clamhurt_legbeard

Wazhappenin1 ago

Thanks haven't come across her. I guess it's another reason XIX shouldn't have happened

Crackrocknigga ago

They often accuse me of being sanegoat

I feel I might be him in spirit lmao

lord_nougat ago

You're INsanegoat!

Crackrocknigga ago

That works pretty good when regs open i might delete this and shapeshift

lord_nougat ago

OY VEY, fellow white person!

Me too! I could be like INSANERgoat, or something. And we'll be a disturbingly gay duo!

Crackrocknigga ago

Fuck yeah swordfight

Crackrocknigga ago

Haha yup

Nosfewratsjews ago

I feel bad for anyone who used a personal e-mail for any of those offshoots.

Thisismyvoatusername ago

Who cares? Aren't there only around 20 people on there anyway?

Nosfewratsjews ago

If you are uninterested in why someone would ban people who point out they moderate a competing service, then I'll make sure to watch you more closely in the future.

Thisismyvoatusername ago

I'm just asking why anyone on voat cares about phuks? It is a shitty website.

Nosfewratsjews ago

SBBH vs. SDBH.

Don't pretend you don't understand what that entails.

Thisismyvoatusername ago

Let's assume I don't. Please explain to me why I should care. In what way does talking about phuks improve voat? I don't think mods on voat should be banning people but if they are then complain about it on v/protectvoat and people know which subs to avoid.

Elite_Niggerfaggot ago

It's the same level as people on Voat who bitch and complain about Reddit drama.

Thisismyvoatusername ago

There just seems to have been an increase in it lately and it is getting mildly annoying. I'd just ignore it, but I really am curious why some fairly active, regular users are being so obsessive about it.

Elite_Niggerfaggot ago

I'm thinking it may be time for another Voat vacation. I thought that Syazie shit would satisfy everyone's drama boner but it seems to have the opposite affect. (effect?)

Nosfewratsjews ago

The wrong side won that fight.

Note: Srayzie (or however it's spelled) isn't either side I'm referring to.

Nosfewratsjews ago

ProtectVoat is an oxymoron. It exists to do the opposite. Spare me.

Nosfewratsjews ago

Thanks for the detail. I appreciate it. Was Phuks new from the ground up, or was there a fork from one side or the other at the time?

Who are the other software developers aside from Clammy?

Crackrocknigga ago

Sbbh is brigading, they scp farm alts

progressbin ago

Phuks.co is written in python, and is extremely extremely homosexual! Voat is written in C# master race.

lord_nougat ago

Phukking phaggots!

Nosfewratsjews ago

Interesting. Maybe it was Poal, but I thought Phuks was using Putt's code before he pulled it from Github.

lord_nougat ago

Poal's based on something called 'throat', whatever that is.

Nosfewratsjews ago

Like deepthroat?

lord_nougat ago

Great minds, as they say!

I inferred that very joke to the admin there about something or other. It seemed funnier at the time, I was probably drunk or something... or it was actually funnier in context.
