Bored People Chat – Anonymous global chat room. No signup/ads/bots

Hacker News

Bored People Chat is a minimal, anonymous global chat room inspired by the old internet that doesn't have sign-up, ads or bots. With a goal of cleaning up the bad reputation of previous anonymous chats, it’s a tiny website that has a single public global room. I purposefully didn't implement the ability to DM in here, and added moderation and filtering for anything that looks like personal information. Only a global public room exist where there are eyes of others. I built this because I personally wanted a space where I can always come back to, to meet and talk with strangers but also feel safe. It is mostly from nostalgia from old chat rooms and MMORPGs where I was able to make real deep connections online with people I haven't really seen faces of. I already see a few people who regularly start coming back because they feel lonely, bored or just curious. Some might've just moved to a new place, or have other reasons why it is difficult to meet people in real life. It has really meant a lot to be able to provide a small space like this for people to gather, feel the presence of others and talk about their life. My main focus is on the safety and moderation so I can continue to provide a safe space to talk. I believe this is achievable with help of modern AI agents that can automate the flagged chats and repeat offenders. I’d really appreciate some genuine feedback. Thanks.
