Ask Lemmy
41396 readers
1150 users here now
A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions
Rules: (interactive)
1) Be nice and; have fun
Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, toxicity and dog-whistling are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them
2) All posts must end with a '?'
This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?
3) No spam
Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.
4) NSFW is okay, within reason
Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either !asklemmyafterdark@lemmy.world or !asklemmynsfw@lemmynsfw.com.
NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].
5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.
If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email info@lemmy.world. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.
6) No US Politics.
Please don't post about current US Politics. If you need to do this, try !politicaldiscussion@lemmy.world or !uspolitics@lemmy.world
7) No Hit-and-Run questions.
Please don't delete your post for no apparent reason. If you plan on deleting a question later, say so in the post, or if you feel that you have a good reason to remove it, message a mod beforehand. It's not fair to the ones who took their time to answer, and it's not in the spirit of the community.
8) No Bots.
Posts or comments from bots, LLM's, AIs, Neural Networks, Transformers, or Marvin the Paranoid Android are not welcome in AskLemmy. Real humans only please.
Reminder: The terms of service apply here too.

This is more of a game where people pretend to be AI. But it’s light, and funny, and you know it’s a person
Didn't Omegle die? Or ensshittify. Nowadays, when I hear about people finding strangers to talk to on the internet, it's usually vr chat.
It was killed by a lawsuit and media campaign
isn't that the site where everyone is skipping each other while jerking off? it's too sad. you have better luck posting your dick here
Chatroulette?
It is dead
Chaturbate
There's a user on Lemmy (I forget what instance and the name of the user/comm escapes me right now) but they just blog on their own comm, which shares their name IIRC, and anyone can reply to them. I've replied a couple times and they don't always respond (and I wouldn't expect them to; I don't respond to a lot of replies to me), but when they do, it's usually a pleasant experience.
You might be wondering how you get subscribers. A lot of us just browse /all, so we see everything. (I've since learned how to hide NSFW comms/posts and that's made my experience better. YMMV. I wish I could still see NSFW discussions; I just don't need to see porn of girls who look 15, and guys who try to get other guys to look at their junk — it's usually one or the other, and neither appeals to me at all. So not everything.)
Where does one go for the nsfw conversations on here? I miss the thirst and fanfic from ARAD sometimes lol. Three last time I checked, the nsfw lemmy server was in read only mode.
You might be thinking of /u/bitofarambler@crazypeople.online, if interesting travel posts are what you had in mind
No, the one I'm thinking of has a shorter name than that, but I'm sure there are lots of good examples.
The game VR chat, is you have a decent computer. Doesn't need to be a full on gaming PC and you don't need a VR headset. I started playing on my basic laptop I used during college. It had 16g of ram, and I don't remember the processor but it didn't have a problem with VR chat, when it could really run Skyrim for example.
Really fun game to meet people all over the world. There's a lot of people and kids goofing off on there too, but I've had a lot of genuine and nice convos and connections too, especially during the pandemic
Omegle?
How about making an account on a social media, like mastodon or frendica.world, and mkae posts kind of talk into the void? I used to do that, helps a bit
Ya i do that on mastodon! Its fun actually. Its slower at first but you gain followers and find people you like. Its not really chatting though.
OP may I recommend finding an IRC chat? Find a community you like and pop on there. Also less chances its a bot you're talking to.
Lemmy?
Wanna chat?
Sure, what's up?
Omegle is an option.
Ahhh ... I just checked whether the website still loads, I didn't look at the content. Thanks!
