Goats, this is your reminder that you should be on Aether. If you have heard the reasoning before, you know it is right. It is fun on Aether right now watching Reddit meet Voat.
Goats, if you haven't heard of Aether yet, you are in for a treat. The arguments are compelling:
Free Speech - to the extent permitted under the 1st Amendment
Free Software - AGPL, Use, Study, Share and Improve the code as you like
Distributed - No throttle point for censors
Encrypted - Communications between peers are encrypted
Ephemeral - Posts and comments vanish after 6 months
Democratic - Impeach and remove unwanted power mods
Development - Funded and under active development

Read the documentation if you are curious. (You ought to be.)

Pro-Tips:
NSFW - Everything, even /b/Cooking, is by default NSFW on Aether, so go into settings and enable NSFW
Thumbnails - Aether is text based. Enable thumbnails if you want images.
/b/Voat - Meet friends and ask questions here:
aether://board/f2c944108971c509c3718a43e8bc77d95d3591746241b6a490e537f00122d98d
* Freedom - If you want to verify you have free speech, try it in /b/Voat
If anybody has questions, objections or concerns, let us know here. I will be happy to try and answer them.
And get over to Aether!

Good on you!
They love it when they shut down a platform like the chans or voat.co. They can't shut down Aether! The client and source code is available for everybody. Once Voat is established on Aether, it will be very hard to stop us.
Goats, we love catbox, but IPFS is the future for file storage and distribution. Learn how to put your memes on IPFS using ipfs-desktop, and our Art will last forever!
