Reddit Alternative, Voat, Has Caught Up to Reddit In Terms of Search Interest

Well that was fast. According to partial data for July 2015 on Google Trends, voat, a community-based site that has seen a rise in popularity due to the clashing over at reddit, has already caught up to reddit with regard to search interest. As I type this post, voat has a score of 71 and reddit has a score of 73. The rise in popularity of voat happened extremely quickly — it’s pretty much a straight line up from May to July.

You can take a look for yourself over at Google Trends. I’m also embedding the screenshot below. What do you think: will the trend continue or will voat interest flame out?
