Voat.co: Free Speech Discussion Forum
A news aggregation and discussion website promoting free speech with minimal censorship, offering an alternative to Reddit
What is Voat.co?
Voat.co is a news aggregation and social platform launched in 2014 as an open source alternative to Reddit. The site has a similar functionality and layout to Reddit, allowing users to submit links and text posts, vote submissions up or down, and leave comments.
A key difference between Voat and Reddit is Voat's strong focus on free speech and opposition to censorship. The site describes itself as a place where you can have your say without fear of being censored. It arose as an alternative to Reddit after some Reddit users were dissatisfied with what they saw as excessive censorship and bannings happening on subreddits.
Voat has far fewer users than the popular Reddit site, but promotes itself as an alternative community for those valuing freedom of speech above all else when posting or commenting. It faces ongoing challenges around hosting costs and controversies related to the content being posted or shared on the platform.
