    While Voat did run away the big winner from the reddit exodus

Are they really the big winner? All they got were essentially the worst people on Reddit. The conspiracy theorists, the Fat People Hate subscribers, and a lot of the "Gamer Gate" losers that think the right to being able to hate on fat people and women are the most important issues of a generation. These are the same people that talked about "free speech" when Reddit banned the /r/jailbait subreddit...

Voat can have them. I wouldn't wish that plague on any website.

Amen.

Good to see you by the way. How is family life?

Good to see you as well. I'm still lurking here and there from time to time. Family life is good, just had a great first fathers day with the wife and daughter. No complaints, other than being busy. :)

How are you doing?

Hey, congrats on the first father's day. I hope there are many more to come!

I'm glad we didn't get those users too, but by "big winner" I just meant in terms of sheer numbers which you may or may not want. I personally don't want them.
