Voat 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.


That's fair. Network effects are more powerful than just about any single feature.
