User Reviews

The app is praised for its cool, nostalgic vibe and roleplaying community with potential real connections. However, recurring issues include abusive moderation, safety concerns (predators and bullying), poor chat quality, and technical reliability problems that hinder overall user experience.

Pros

Cool vibe and nostalgic feel reminiscent of early internet culture.
Unique social app that's good for roleplaying and meeting people.
Can lead to real connections (relationships or friendships) and memorable interactions.
Generally functional and compatible on various devices according to user feedback.

Cons

Moderation abuses: muting or banning without warning and perceived misuse of power by moderators.
Safety concerns: presence of predators, grooming, cyberbullying, and perceived inadequate action by moderators.
Poor chat quality: inactive or spammy rooms, begging for likes, and VIP elitism leading to a fragmented experience across languages.
Technical reliability issues: crashes on iPhone, login problems, not receiving notifications, and slow/loading profiles.

I have been using this since 2020 ish and it’s a very non problematic app I think more people should know about it and it just has a cool vibe.

Cool app sometimes weird but over all okay only problem mods power hungry for no reason looking for any opportunity to mute your account without so much as a warning it’s really went downhill since 2020 fix the mods.

This app is ran by folks with high school diplomas and questionable motives. Pedos and criminals get away with whatever but stand up for yourself and you get banned or muted.
