You realize most old poalers are old voaters right?
That does explain the smell.
lol
Who left voat to have a more poal-like place. I mean I set up an account here 2 years ago and then stayed on voat anyway. So other than the very occasional lurk, I don't know much about poal. It seems like a legitimate question.
I can tell you precisely why I left voat. They had a subverse called starlet or starlets that was exclusively scantily dressed children in bathing suits etc. I addressed this w/ puttitout at the time. He said it constituted free speech and I said it was sexualizing children. Many of us came here for that specific reason among a litany of others. I'm literally the voater that started paddyspub and did all the css w/ the explanation of how even a layman could edit it if he wanted. I believed in the site, but my principles/standards matter more to me and I will not lower them.
I always thought PaddysPub was a vote farm, so avoided it. I'll give it another gander.
I didn't so much mean why people left voat for poal. I meant what poal was like before last week.
Fair enough on your reason, though. I remember the day you made PaddysPub. You had an issue posting to whatever the then popular music sub was and so made a new one, right?
