saidit VS voat

For Reddit alternatives, it looks like https://saidit.net/ (https://github.com/libertysoft3/saidit) and https://phuks.co/ (https://github.com/Phuks-co/throat) could be viable alternatives. They're open source, have the UX features we desire (threaded, voting, sorting, collapsing).

And while the content of the site is kind of... well, despicable and kinda fucked up, this project: https://github.com/libertysoft3/saidit has made tons of fixes and improvements to the code itself going forward, so there's one source of fixes/improvements to draw from, as well as a few other active forks.

In fact one site I found a repo for has done so and has made many fixes/improvements to that code -> https://github.com/libertysoft3/saidit

One codebase that could probably work is this one: https://github.com/libertysoft3/saidit but there are others out there.

Why not point Apollo at a Reddit alternative, or use the open-source code for Reddit (or code like this https://github.com/libertysoft3/saidit) instead of shutting it down?

If Apollo's users (or a good percentage of them) moved over to an alternative platform, that would be poetic justice, at least.

saidit went down this path, and it was indeed a nightmare. what reddit had posted publicly was unusable and misleading, effectively token open source. if anyone is brave enough to try, they should check for fixes here: https://github.com/libertysoft3/saidit

People have even forked reddit already (don't know much about that site) : https://github.com/libertysoft3/saidit

Here's the source code: https://github.com/libertysoft3/saidit

I have left reddit for Voat due to years of admin mismanagement and preferential treatment for certain subreddits and users holding certain political and ideological views.

Oh true, I forgot about that myself. Looks like the repo is still available - https://github.com/voat/voat

What is the next reddit though? I tried to jump onto voat.co, but that was a POS. Mastadon isn't cutting it, and is more of a twitter alternative anyway. Maybe somebody virtualizes a bunch of PHPBB instances (one per community)? And copies all the old discussions over?

Yes. I had forgotten about the vaccine passports. I got mine from voat.co and printed it up and no one ever asked me for it except at a bar. The hospital I work for didn't ask me for it because they peeked at all employees' medical records.

There used to be this site called voat.co

The old Voat site was completely open source. https://github.com/voat/voat/tree/master

I want to thank everyone on this sub, because you have been a very huge part of enlightening me with the Truth. I would visit r/conspiracy, r/The_Donald, 4chan, voat.co, Twitter, Gab, you name them. The most strong spirit of love, freedom, enlightenment, and Truth came from people on this sub, such as u/RMFN, polkadotgirl, peyotecayote, Obi Wan person, and many others who have been banned or just disappeared. If any of you are reading this, I want to say thank you.
