This needs some way of voting posts down/flagging. Too many "Send nudes" and other inappropriate messages.

Yep definitely have a feature like that in the works. Where if > 50% active users vote to kick someone they're kicked out for 30 mins. Easy to do, just a matter of finding the time to code it :/

Site looks broken to me. Using Chrome on Linux.

I'm also getting JS errors: "Uncaught TypeError: Object.entries is not a function connection.onmessage @ (index):403".

I didn't realize how new that was. Yeah I rely on the newest of the newest features. I check caniuse.com and if at least 3 major browsers supports a feature then I use it freely. Sometimes that means using stuff that doesn't work on older browsers or IE11.

Maybe you're on an older version of Chrome? I can't be bothered to do the research but I recall Object.entries being a (relatively) recent addition.

Object.entries requires Chrome 54, have you upgraded?

I wonder how subtle changes to the way the game is framed may alter what people write.

caused it to freeze for chrome users with max craziness text from this site : https://lingojam.com/GlitchTextGenerator

Rick roll links and profanity incoming!

That's cool! How did you make it?

It was originally vanilla JS on the front-end but I changed to Vue.js because it was really inconvenient without something like that. Vue has its own caveats but they're less annoying than nothing. The backend is a single free-tier EC2 server running a single Node.js process, using Websockets. Everything is custom except a canned websocket lib (and Vue).

From what I can see it uses VueJS for the UI and websockets for server communication. I would bet that the backend is in NodeJS :).

Looks like it died?
