voat is still a thing?!
Edit: Just checked, it's still a right wing shit hole. i thought it closed down a couple years ago though
It did close. Surprised to see it reopen. I left reddit for voat early on before it got filled with crazies and eventually lost viable funding.
Are you sure it was Reddit, or the mods?
This list is still up: https://old.reddit.com/r/RedditAlternatives/comments/1anols3/social_websites_with_nested_comments_v7/
Linking directly to reddit helps them show up at the top of search results. Use archive websites.
The person who created the "List of Active Reddit Alternatives" is a dev who helped work on saidit.net. They deleted the post themselves and quit being a mod of that redditalternatives sub; due to their disgust with reddit and many of the users on it.
That subreddit is not trustworthy now. I recall someone sharing evidence of content they're censoring.
As much as I'm happy with the current userbase of Lemmy, thinking that a 33 upvotes post will have an impact on the ranking of Reddit seems unrealistic. Of course of people want to provide archive links I would add them next to the Reddit one, but the trade-off doesn't seem worth it.

A few people still use it to promote Lemmy, none of the posts got removed.
Most recent example from 3 hours ago: https://old.reddit.com/r/RedditAlternatives/comments/1fc8p7g/reddit_alternative_with_similar_user_interface/
What might have happened in the past is when people were posting about other subs removing pro Fediverse posting, but that's the general anti brigading policy.
golly, with how small this site is, it seems like ima be seeing the same folks in a buncha different servers.
Yeah, I have a few alts, don't worry 😄
Are these any good, or do they have the same problems as Reddit?
To give you an idea, Discuit, one of the most discussed centralized alternatives last year, has now 255 active users:
I really like Lemmy
Me too
Was it even listed? The only instance on the active list i saw was hexbear and on the unactive list lemmy.ml, both instances that a lot of people dont like
LW is the 4th on the current pinned list: https://old.reddit.com/r/RedditAlternatives/comments/1anols3/social_websites_with_nested_comments_v7/
Lemmy is listed as just Lemmy second in the "Less active than Reddit" section
Voat came about when FatPeopleHate got banned Ovarit is similar but for the anti-trans subreddit GenderCritical. Gab is also on there which is an even further right Mastodon fork than Truth Social.
Thanks, they sound repellant!
Ok so reading between the lines I'm meant to try digg.com again?

The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:

Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-Reddit posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.
If you vocally harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
:::spoiler Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.
