Example of the real-real-time chat: https://kraa.io/hackernews

I couldn't see the value of this application until I went on this link and saw the euphoria. Whatever this means, there's certainly a place for unfiltered, unmoderated "anonymous" chat. This is promising, but I still don't understand why it always had to end in penis.

Anyway, I liked this. Consider making sent messages as immutable, it's very distracting people editing old messages.

Shows a lot of confidence in their own service when they link to their "main" chatroom on another live chat provider.

This went to hell fairly quickly

  • Everyone learns some important lessons the first time they allow user-generated content on the public internet, particularly if you're brave enough to allow so without any login :) It's a rite of passage at this point I think, lucky OP :)

    • I’m reminded, by the ascii art d’s, about a metric used in game dev where users can shape content, something to the effect of time to penis (TTP): defined as the time from tool availability to when users abuse said tool to craft dong.

      Supposedly it’s pretty quick.
