Voat.com has been around for a while. They made a decent push during some reddit drama ~2 years ago. However, looking through voat 'subverses' aka subreddits they look pretty dead for the counterparts that I visit on reddit ex: www.reddit.com/r/homebrewing vs www.voat.com/v/homebrewing and www.reddit.com/r/unrealengine vs www.voat.com/v/unrealengine

Their 'HOT' ordering makes the site look dead where they should probably take into account newer stories as everything in the 'HOT' ranking is years old (except for heavier trafficked subverses)
