voat literally was a reddit clone for a long time though before they re-wrote their source code in .NET, just throwing that out there

Yeah I think they got scared off by the codebase, plus were ignorant (or scared of) copyright law.

Then they re-wrote themselves right in to $6k/mo Azure licensing fees lol

They're stumbling around blindly like Mr. Magoo. :P
