An app, a community, a website where I can chat with a random person.

Sometimes it gets lonely, my stomach ache. I just need a short conversation; "hi, I am from here, I like this and.that" and then never chat again.

I need it because I am 24/7 in an apartment, and I have a lot of stress. You sometimes just need to chat or listen to them.

Chaturbate

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

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

He asks on a platform where you can do just that…

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.)

You might be thinking of /u/bitofarambler@crazypeople.online, if interesting travel posts are what you had in mind

cerebralhawks@lemmy.dbzer0.com · 3 pts · 18h

No, the one I'm thinking of has a shorter name than that, but I'm sure there are lots of good examples.

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.

cerebralhawks@lemmy.dbzer0.com · 1 pts · 4h

There was one instance that is in read-only mode. There's a new one. I forget the names. Browse /all, it should show up eventually (unless you have NSFW hidden).

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

answersplease77@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 18h

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

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

bridgeenjoyer@sh.itjust.works · 7 pts · 23h

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.
