The thing is that most people don't want completely uncensored social media. Most people stay away from 4chan. Reddit remains much more popular than voat. Assholes are creative and persistent so you have to keep them away.
- gurkendoktor 9y agoVoat is also much newer than Reddit, so it's at a natural disadvantage. If users strongly preferred well-moderated social networks, someone would open a Twitter clone (or Mastodon instance) where the mods actually care about harassment, and sip away Twitter's unhappy users. But sadly all the people I'm following are still only on Twitter, even if they keep complaining about it.
- guelo 9y agoThat's fair. Network effects are more powerful than just about any single feature.
