    A lot of people like voat, and dislike snapzu because of censorship. It seems snapzu prohibits personal attacks and hate speech, and for some reason people don't like that. I guess they want to keep their options open, or they just don't understand the first amendment

      That's currently my favorite thing about Snapzu though. I'd much rather have a clean one, than something free that I don't want to be a part of.

      Some people like to say people who want that are just looking for a big hugfest. I'm not necessarily looking for a hugfest, I just don't want a stabfest.

      Personally those reasons are why I regularly use both. Snapzu has great communities that stay focused on civil discourse. Voat has great communities as well, but they can be a bit more "raw", which I also want from time to time.

      I've also heard lack of porn a complaint. But really you got to diversify your jerkin anyway. I think people have gotten so used to the tailored curated subreddits and tumblrs some people have forgotten how to forage for porn.

      Well of course I still use Reddit for that.

      It's like my bank keeps telling me, gotta diversify.

      But yeah, I don't get why it has to be an all or nothing. I read through the handful of things I care to look at on Reddit about halfway through the day unless I'm super busy and dont get lunch or something.
