Yes a similar thing happened on voat, but voat died and it wasn't just because of the trolls. It was because the only people who commented commented about reddit, it was basically a reddit based forum, and when people got tired of complaining about reddit they just left. Make sure to use this community as much as possible to grow it and keep it this way. Make it a habit to login daily and replace bad habits with this new habit. And 9/10 your favorite community won't exist here, and I highly encourage you to build it if it doesn't and then promote it. I am doing that for /c/frugal: https://lemmy.world/c/frugal

One could moderate their own community on voat and ban people from it, but nobody cared to even make communities that were not about either reddit or very grotesque racist content. It eventually died because quite frankly your right, people don't even want to touch a website like that with a proxy because it was way too hot and probably monitored by intel agencies. I know I stopped posting there once it turned into that, wasn't worth the personal risk of my ip being associated with that. But I think it was two things combined. The out of control content, but also the fact nobody used it other than to post extreme content, so if you banned the extreme content you would be left with nothing at all anyway.

Maddening. Fuck you Reddit!
In an effort to migrate, try to bring over a reddit sub. I made frugal community here.

How many of you have pulled the plug and deleted reddit already?
I use reddit via Reddit is Fun android app. No app? No using reddit for leisure. I still "use" it from google to get opinions on various things, but since I can't view it from Reddit is fun, I now only do this from desktop.
I tried to migrate off reddit a long time ago back when voat was hip and cool, before it turned into a hub of trolling.

He only killed one person too. Seems he killed the wrong person, maybe someone with power/connections. It makes no sense how he gets the death penalty but other murders don't.

Bought a bread Bread Machine, use it almost daily

Do thrift stores still have good deals. I heard you could buy a bread maker there for like 8 bucks. But that was years ago. From what I heard they are all almost as expensive as Walmart or just out of stock for things like kitchen gadgets.

Just as long as it doesn't resemble what the poors would use. Yuck.

[meta] Should we just use lemmy.ml's community?
Perfectly fine to use both. It's federated, and better to split them up to prevent a mod cabal.

He wasn't a brutal killer, he was hired to kill someone and did it out of greed. That's actually not brutality. Brutality would be someone raping someone and then killing them for glee. The state in this case is doing this out of brutality, they are doing it because it brings enjoyment and their method of execution is quite brutal.

And the reddit blackout is forcing people into the habit of using lemmy. Ideally that habit replaces the old one.
