I don’t remember what caused the Voat’s origin, except it involved Reddit HQ. And then it went under in 2020.
What’s different about this time and with Lemmy to make it a feasible alternative to Reddit? Is it random chance?

If that showed up on some Lemmy instance, you’d still have people saying “Defederation is bad! Marketplace of ideas! Just block them and move on! It’s just one person!” :sigh:
IIRC Voat also added the option to block communities, which prevented the hateful ones from showing up on the front page.
That obviously didn’t help…
Well yeah their front page was empty.
