Summary

Bored People Chat is a free anonymous global chat room with no accounts, no ads, and no AI.

Bored People Chat is a minimal, anonymous global chat room inspired by the old internet that doesn&#x27;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&#x27;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.<p>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&#x27;t really seen faces of.<p>I already see a few people who regularly start coming back because they feel lonely, bored or just curious. Some might&#x27;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.<p>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.<p>I’d really appreciate some genuine feedback. Thanks.
