Omegle Shutdown
If you go to the URL the founder left a goodbye message, honestly one of the worst and most irresponsibly managed sites on the internet but feels kind of weird to see it gone since its sort an artifact of a bygone era.
i'm mildly upset about this because i made a lot of friends on there, too bad so sad i guess.
Anyone who didn't get the memo that things changed by ~2019 (at the latest) deserves all the sadness and shit that comes with it. Get with the times, old man!
You will only use FAGMAN sites and you will be happy.
Anyone have a tldr of the message on the site? Why was it shut down?
>people used our site for bad things like sharing cp, grooming kids, and exposing kids to porn
>people used our site for political wrongthink because current year n sheeit
>we mismanaged it and were dumbasses
>we got into a lot of trouble and are too deeply entrenched in lawsuits to manage this shit anymore
>people used our site for bad things like sharing cp, grooming kids, and exposing kids to porn
How does Discord get away with it?
globohomo always prevails
discord is owned by the same people who post that shit.
They sell the data to feds to get information on people aka a honeypot
Omegle sold data too if you ever read their privacy policy
Because Discord sells your data. Very good thing. They are big fish right now and can't be taken down.
Chinese own it
they don't. They have an AI that checks your private messages. My friend got banned for sending pics of an of age girl with a flat chest.
>came from a small town and wanted to meet strangers
>scared of strangers bc was raped as a little boy
>create an anonymous site for meeting strangers!
>mfw kids get raped
>insert 6 paragraphs of libertarian garbage
>muh mental health and pressure campaigns and no moneyz
>goodbye sweet prince
That was basically it
the site shut down because of cost, obviously, he even had to mention that amidst his preachy bullshit
for as much as cracking down on creepy (sexual) shit would "stop" pedos, pedos are maybe like 5% of that and the other 95% are just people looking for anonymous sex chat of any kind and they all left too
the every year the average amount of users would be down by like 5,000 on average and I don't remember it hitting over 200k ever again after like 2015
The site became unusable after they got rid of the spy mode, which itself was also unusable but atleast created a sort of "general" tag. The creator was just obviously incompetant and didnt try in the slightest to crack down on spam beyond retarded measures.
Omegle used to make around 100k a month. The costs were basically zero.
when was that? because even trump vs. hilary didn't stop it from hemorrhaging users and that shit boosted the userbase of almost every other communication based forum I can think of
A long time ago. He's been radio silent about omegle for a while now.
They got a lot of new users during covid. I remember in 2019 the counter would usually stay at around 20,000 users, but during and after the covid lockdowns it stayed above 40K pretty consistently
hosting stuff online that is not high demand costs basically nothing. $120 per year maybe.
>that is not high demand
what would "high demand" mean
because last I saw earlier today there were like 30k users
He means website hosting services are cheap as fuck now, 120 a year for unlimited space and traffic. Then any website can be built on it, chat services are really low traffic because it's text. By modern standards it's like ridiculously low demand on a server, video is different, but text chat is nothing. A few bytes a second
well then I don't know
the fag in charge listed "not being able to afford it anymore" alone with "evil" as the reasons it was shutting down
unless omegle was doing something more it's literally just a torrent tracker
it's only job is to send your ip to the other person so your webshit can connect
irrelevant memegle should only keep track of visitors waiting to pair, then help them pair, it doesn't send any significant data, it's literally meta data cos the actual video audio is or should be done between the visitors themselves directly so you're looking at the most basic online plan of around 20 bucks per year
>the site shut down because of cost
Every fucking time. I hate it when famous websites shut down for economical reasons and instead of being honest about it they use other lame excuses.
Eh, a substitute will be made. Its business model was generic
I run a social media site but I'm very left-wing so the only risk for me is from the right, who hold more annoyance power but much less real power.
that's kind of sad. i didn't think about how old it was. i guess there's still chat roulette but really it's not the same internet it used to be
i ghosted pretty much every qt girl i added off omegle.
it's crazy to think that some of them have made so much progress in their lives.
all the best to everyone who's made my life even a tiny bit better.
i never added someone from omegle. only had a few talks but i stopped when i found someone pedobaiting by pretending to be a 14 yo. girl or something. i'm not a retarded pedo so i said no to them and they told me they were a pedo baiter, but that gave me a bad taste
Just don't be a pedo, it's that easy
Not him but I understand what he means. Imagine you're having a house party and you know for a fact that there are undercover cops in there, somewhere. Even if you know you won't do anything illegal, their presence alone will suck the air out of every room. They're not potential friends, they're focused on doing their thing.
Yes anon. 13 yo girls are not your friends. They weren't when you were their age, they certainly aren't now.
Except we're not talking about 13yos you fucking retard, but adult people pretending to be 13yos.
Damn, where am I supposed to talk to people online from now on? It was the only decent anonymous chat on the net despite all its squalor
I'm a developer and I'd make a competitor but I don't want to deal with the CP and other issues
I kind feel that the pedophilia thing is a way to shut something down while concealing an ulterior motive. Especially since they only selectively shut down certain sites, like
said.
Its almost like the lawsuits (which helped take down omegle) are the blunt instrument being used to dismantle free speech and the free internet. The site says no under 18s allowed, but its IMPOSSIBLE to enforce that without verifying government IDs. And the israelites in the courts and the israelites filing those lawsuits know that. The ultimate goal is probably just to force the internet to use government IDs. The pedo excuse is just that, an excuse. Think of the children etc
There are many competitors already. Chathub for example
>video chat
you don't even understand what omegle was primarily used for
>what omegle was primarily used for
Just because text was there for the severely facially challenged doesn't mean video was not part of the site
and just because you redditspaced doesn't mean you're a fag, but it's the most likely truth
Okay uggo
Look
Even more spaces
Boil
why would I "boil"
I wasn't the one who was wrong
Wrong about what? Video being part of omegle? That's just factual, shit was always crowded while you were erping with other sweaty neckbeards through text
you posted a video chat site in an omegle thread with 100 posts about how autists loved using it to learn how to talk to people without having to show their faces
so yes, it was an incorrect suggestion
>you posted a video chat site
I didn't post shit, you're talking to two people
>100 posts about how autists loved using it to learn how to talk to people without having to show their faces
No, that's just you, there are also screencaps from the video section in this very thread, open your eyes
yeah use the tranny as your example, and then proceed to call me obsessed when I say you're one too
Are you even trying to make sense now? Whatever man, just realize that omegle was 50/50, not exclusively text as you say, and it wasn't just normies and pajeets on video, the /LULZ/ and LULZ tags were crowded with neets and hikis back in the day
There was definitely a chat-only part of the site you could access. I never had a webcam and I managed to get my old friend a girlfriend through it. They live together now.
>In recent years, it seems like the whole world has become more ornery. Maybe that has something to do with the pandemic, or with political disagreements. Whatever the reason, people have become faster to attack, and slower to recognize each other's shared humanity.
kek. i actually love seeing how with a bit of trauma liberal societies start cannibalizing themselves as individuals start eating each other like rats.
Kek libshits are demolishing their own websites and institutions over wrongthink. With this latest israel-palestine stuff, I fully expect them to shut down instagram/tiktok. Kek! Time for lontards to choose. Either allow slutty whores or allow anti-israel. Cant have both anymore.
omegle had a pretty active lgbt/blm type audience too, they were never in short supply if you wanted to get into an argument
Now that I can't flash my huge robot cock to foids online it's truly over.
Legit now, how can I sustain my cyberexhibitionist fetish with omegle gone?
SHOW ME YOUR COCK HUMAN
I can't wait until a similar page shows up when you load this site
No it won't show up.
>Where else am i gonna find cheese pizza now?
It's a joke but truly the reason why it shut down kek
How bad was the colored pencils situation on there? I only ever used text mode for cybering and I don't remember people handing out porn links there
it wasn't bad that I could ever see but I only ever used specific tags to find girls that would be out their age range and maybe there were actual pedo codewords that they were using
but it was in the 300,000s on average in 2013/2014
I think 2015 is when sexual shit started getting slowly cracked down on
I've been on it fairly regularly since 2016 (until tonight obviously) exclusively for ERP, the only real thing I noticed is that the pedo and bestiality tags got "banned" in 2019 iirc, then last year they started putting people into captcha purgatory if you sent certain words. It was always a chore to find any decent ERP'ers, but towards the end it became really bad because all the pedos who no longer had containment tags were just everywhere. The quality of the ERP's in general has also been going down ever since covid, my guess is it's because all the decent ERP'ers moved to Discord.
>pedos pedos pedos
they banned "hentai" and "rule 34" and even some porn star names
it wasn't anti-pedo it was anti-coomer and that was the majority of the userbase which is why the numbers cratered
Their anti-coomer/pedo measures were beyond retarded honestly. I added the hentai tag a few times for shits back in the day and it was surprisingly clean, literally just people memeing. From what I heard the really problematic tags were things like kpop, bts, pop artists, tiktok, things that young girls were into basically, obviously pedos would add them knowing what they would find.
>it wasn't anti-pedo
"ageplay" got banned too
https://litter.catbox.moe/c6omri.txt
Here is a list of some of the banned tags.
>LULZ banned
THEY FUCKING KNEW AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
Leif did an AMA on /LULZ/, anon. He definitely knew.
I really do wonder why he did banned them in the end.
>albania
Original comment, lemme through
sisters is a super recent one, I was on that one maybe two weeks ago
there were like 10 ones I would use that I noticed were banned, but I never knew it was that bad
yellow fever lasted through to the very end though lmao
ageplay and bestiality are missing from that list, so I'm wondering how it was compiled since those have been banned for a long time
>yellow fever lasted through to the very end though lmao
blacked as well even though this list has a bunch of related tags that are banned, plus having certain words relating to this fetish in your messages would force you into solving captchas as punishment
Yeah, it's not comprehensive. Which is why I said some.
If it was logged by me, then banned, it is most likely in the list.
I only logged around 20k tags.
What did you use to find this info? Throughout my years on Omegle I always wondered what tags other people used but never really found that information. It's kinda poetic that I finally get to see this info now that the site is gone.
I collected them myself. I put in actual millions of different words as tags, hundreds at a time.
Here is one form of the LULZ cluster.
Autism/bpd etc get grouped differently if when it gets more specific.
How'd you get the numbers associated with each tag? Just kept rerunning the same tag and counting how many different IP addresses you got?
you can't grab someone's IP over text on omegle lol this guy's data is flawed
i've talked to you before on omegle, i probably have our conversation saved
meant for this anon here
You could. Each IP had a uniuque ID. If you ever used video chat then text chat, it was possible.
>Just kept rerunning the same tag and counting how many different IP addresses you got?
something like that
then you can do whatever funky data science thing you want
when i got the first set of tags, i used vector embeddings to get similar words and it instantly doubled...
Neat, I wonder if all the smut I've typed into Omegle through the years is saved on some anon's hard drive somewhere
They never got impreg or impregnation! Up until now, anyway. I really have no idea how to meet women who are into it outside of omegle, and it was relatively very easy compared to other fetishes. This is actually horrible for me
>d, a, m, f, h, x, v, r, e, z, k, u, i, n, y, w, o, c, p, j, l, s
Alright then.
>only ever used text mode for cybering and I don't remember people handing out porn links there
Lucky
I also exclusively used the text chat when I was a teen and I've had a few disgusting bastards send imgur links to camping products
One link had a gallery of a preteen blonde in bondage. It legit haunts me to this day
that fucking sucks man. it's the same sort of homosexuals who drove moot away, too. this is why we can't have nice things.
Used to have conversations there from time to time to curb my loneliness but it got progressively worse in the last few years
Still sad to see it go
Same as this board
this is a sad day for a lot of us. thank you zoomers, for destroying another thing so many enjoyed.
Watching the active user count tick down in the API is so sad. They don't know it's over yet.
I was using it 2 hours ago, stepped away for maybe 30 minutes and came back to a connection era that I assumed was the cookie-related one that happens sometimes
Then I refreshed
we did. had fun with a girl for the very last conversation on that site. nice closure tbh
That's nice. I wish I knew.
Ah lucky. My last interaction with this site was a girl who was obsessed with some internet guy that she didn't even know the face of and that's literally all she wanted to talk about. What a fucking nutjob.
It's gone. My home is gone
im really broken up by this news, honestly. it was like the only place i could chat with others about things i liked without the prejudice of being ugly. just the value of my word and able to connect with many. of course you would run into the are you m or f, but past that you could chat with some cool people. now i no longer have that privilege, it's depressing.
It's sad, but maybe a replacement will pop up, hopefully one that's only advertised on LULZ. Omegle was at its best when it was mostly just people from LULZ and wasn't flooded with bots and pajeets and thirsty normalnaggers.
>maybe a replacement will pop up, hopefully one that's only advertised on LULZ.
Can't see this happening.
Well, there's the duolicious thing that popped up and is only being advertised on LULZ, no reason an Omegle style site couldn't be done.
>duolicious
Running a dating app for supreme gentlemen sounds even riskier than running a cheesy pizza video chat site. Omegle was only able to last this long because it started almost 20 decades ago. I give duolicious a year at best until someone spergs out and kills a "girl" he met on there with his parents guns
>20 decades ago
Sheesh
a LULZ dating site? that's retarded. and what kind of LULZnler worth their salt doesn't block ads, anyway?
Well it's not that complicated to code. Maybe even with better UI, and specific sections like for dating (but you need to register for those), just leave normal video chat anonymous.
Imagine just comming up with same shit, people would not ne interested in that. Stuff needs to be added to make it refreshing.
Theres already a bunch of other websites similar to omegle. Omegle had insane amount of traffic and clout similar to LULZ. All the other random chat websites suck have like less than 500 people on at once. Omegle you can also use tags and no other chat website lets you do that. Its truly over robots. I met 100s people on omegle and lost contanct with vast majority of them. I still have about a dozen contacts from omegle I am going to cherish.
>Omegle you can also use tags and no other chat website lets you do that.
Emerald chat does
it seems like shit. I think its over for chat websites and even for internet in general.
I jerked ut with so many people on there
how viable is emerald chat as an alternative?
idk it's okay
IT'S ALL CRUMBLING DOWN
CRUMBLING DOWN
CRUMBLING DOWN
Shit, as a troon(actually just a crossdressing fag but I pretended to be trans) omegle was one of my main avenues to get off. This is upsetting
lmao I've jerked off with guy number 70 once (if you are reading this sorry I skipped you afterwards anon)
i bet the brownest one is named angel
Number 39 made this chart, number 72 was his friend and that's why her face is blocked out.
I've talked to so many of these people, jesus christ.
wtf didnt expect to see 32 here, remember this guy shaking ass on camera once just to see some tits
rawling for 50
Do 51 or 52 have noods?
On the one hand, I'm glad I'm not in this picture, on the other, What the hell why am I not in here
I used to go maybe once a year when I got lonely, and each time, I had pleasant conversations with guys and girls alike. Last time I used it a Lithuanian guy had some sort of Christian video as his cam and of course I eventually skipped but he found me again somehow and begged me to go to his country to let him fuck me lmao and told me to name my price even after I berated him for supposedly being a Christian AND a fag AND willing to pay someone for sex lol. But even stuff like that was eventful and funny.
It felt good knowing I could always return if I got that lonely again. I was even thinking about going on tomorrow. I remember trying an "omegle alternative" chat site, but it was nothing but dudes with their cocks out.
Where can I go now if I ever get that urge again???
"there was this website where we would add tags, it's was like discord roulette, young zoomer. I met so many friends, none of which I added because I'm not a homosexual. I saw of age tits you wouldn't believe, I met Nazis, with skin darker than midnight, there were trannies, with shoulders wider than the gates of hell. It was glorious. It was mine, but also everyone's, at the same time."
so... surely an alternative will pop up to fill the market, r-r-right?
Unfortunately everyone decided the alternative is Discord about two years ago. Actually, I bet now people will start making "Omegle" discord servers for the people too uncomfortable with dedicated ERP servers
HOW THE FUCK AM I GONNA FIND HOT TRANNY CHASERS TO SUBMIT TO MY HORSE COCK? FUCKING BULLSHIT
If the headache was too much why not just sell the site like Moot did?
omegle man thinks he's fighting "evil" by shutting it down, according to his goodbye essay
Shutting it down might be part of an out of court settlement for the lawsuit against Omegle and he just can't tell us for some reason
Damn good ridden but i first used it over 10 years ago its weird that its gone :c
Peak soc shit. Noone cares but a small circle jerk of LULZ who actually belong on soc.
Who would even want to talk with some guy on omegle anyway, you just know hes horny and desperate.
It was literally just "robots" retrying until they landed on a girl
Rest in PISSSSS!!!
nah mang talking to girls was pretty rare, we mostly vibed with robros, sharing interests and feels
Not really. There was a thin veil of friendship between men but it became a chore to talk to a guy for 5-10 minutes. The conversation became awkward and we both didnt know how to say goodbye because honestly we both were there for pussy.
that's pretty pathetic
I like talking about doubleteaming hot actresses with other dudes and omegle was perfect for that
and getting guys younger than me to start posting pics of their gfs for much the same purpose
>peak /soc/ shit
"peak" /soc/ was like 12 years ago and it was amazing
whenever someone posts some severe anti-fun shit like this I immediately think they're a tranny with a non-functioning dick so they react with hatred whenever something erotic is discussed
You are the tranny talking to people online in your discord instead of talking to girls irl
no
now explain why you're violently mad about an internet jerk off hotspot
Text chat was much more popular then video.
The LULZ related tags were the ones with the least "asl" type of homosexuals on the entire site.
You could have genuine conversations pretty easily, there was almost never horny retards.
>mfw met my first egf through omegle
>she was a bpd whore with huge tits
>met on the LULZ tag
>she's the reason I have a hairy armpits fetish
I hope she's rotting in some minimum wage hellhole.
I met my fat tittied emo autist girlfriend on Omegle
I will m8ss omegle and the frens I used to know from there... even the ones who disappeared on me
You look like gay harry potter.
RIP young limes favorite grooming website
I wasn't grooming I was making frens. I even had a nice gf who was my age from omegle who moved in with me for a time it was the only good time in my life.. I miss that time so much I think she suduko herself though ;_;
Holy shit. That the Megan obsessed stalker dude. Young and thin.
i remember this guy he was really weird and one time he showed his butthole
you average robot chudcel in a nutshell
>handsome white dude vs. non-white tranny
modern politics in a nutshell
that's not handsome. this is handsome
and he also hates naggers and trannies but you want to fuck him and he'd be the best you ever had
that's why we always win, tranny
the same rules apply to black girls
you have an interesting definition of what winning is
why didn't you post the handsome one doing this instead of some uncut canadian or brit or whatever that one is
We moved to skype didn't do anything on omegle and since I've posted his face I feel bad exposing him further
this robot
Idgaf because he's a /misc/tard piece of shit
do you have autism you can't follow a couple screenshots? that's the dude's dick not mine
>I have a horsecock
>no I won't show it!
>I'm gonna claim I don't believe it in hopes of getting him to post it
nice try anon
don't worry I get plenty of validation without showing to you
>don't worry I get plenty of validation without showing to you
you clearly don't
I'm not an evil person(or try not to be) if I'm posting nudes of someone else I'm protecting their privacy keeping them anonymous. /misc/tards are not people
when I show off it's too get something in return. I want literally nothing from you faceless(likely ugly) people, just using this thread to reminisce since it's likely the end of an era for me
>someone strips naked for me
>I take a screenshot without their consent
>"I'm not an evil person"
how is this any different than someone sneakily taking pictures of someone they're fucking and showing their pals, but don't worry! it's okay bc i scribbled over her face.
deranged as fuck
>a complete stranger strips naked for me on a public platform*
fixed
if a random guy that's in no way a part of the girl and their group of friend's life sends her a dick pic it's perfectly natural for her to show it to her girlfriends and have a laugh
if it's a pic with face or if the dicksenter is someone they know so the friends could easily deduce who it is then yeah it becomes more morally questionable
why did it take you 8 years to reply
are you being fed these by someone else?
why did you reply so fast? are you that desperate? as if I have to be glued to this thread
not that you need to know but I was actually just going through my archives looking back through the dozens of really hot men I've scored
not an argument
>my archives
someone's, sure
mine. you're one jealous moron
>jealous
of what
I'm not gay or into trannies
you might as well be showing me a collection of like pokemon cards or some other thing I don't care about and that you also can't even prove you actually own
and yet here you are replying nonstop trying to get me to post
not an argument
you might have something if I'd been the one to claim I didn't need validation while continually trying to validate myself, but that only describes one of us
what even is an argument to you? there's no argument to be had
- you, a complete rando is claiming these pics aren't mine
- me, an omegle user sharing some of the good times I had in the omegle mourning thread tell you they are indeed mine
that's all there is to it, it's not a fucking argument when there is no point to be made or where to go from here
the non-argument is trying to use lurking a thread as some kind of insult, or any variation on that theme of saying someone on LULZ no life while being here yourself
>no point to be made
I agree, but your intention was to make a point
show something of yourself at least. you're posting nudes of strangers but won't post one of yourself? coward shit tbh.
I wasn't looking at your conversation. Now that I know that I'm replying to a homosexual, I surely don't wish to interact with you any further.
>We moved to skype didn't do anything on omegle and since I've posted his face I feel bad exposing him further
sure thing, troon
That's a normal sized cock. You're just small.
Ah well, back to Chatroulette.
>made a bunch of omegle frens but only down to like 2 now
ah..
Aw man, now where am I going to jack off in front of teenagers?
Pride Parades, kindergartens, girls' changing rooms, discord, Twitch...
Sad to see Omegle go, it almost got me raped by a 30 year old woman when I was 15 or something.
it's hard to believe it's gone, whenever i was depressed/lonely it was my place to go. also finding tons of ewhores to send me nudes. and using omeglespy to fuck with people.
i'm an oldfag and it's sad that the internet that i grew up with is almost completely dead. no more anonymous fun. the internet is not the wild west anymore. as gay as that goodbye post was, it resonated with me.
damn now i'm sad.
i don't even know where to meet people online anymore.
>omeglespy
This was severely underrated. I wish I used it more. You could troll or completely take over the conversation after they put in the effort of breaking the ice for you.
Omeglespy was awesome
Just had more fun messing with people using the Furry tag
I'm genuinely so upset over this. I've been on omegle since before there was even video chat. It's always been an awesome outlet for an introverted person like myself to find some decent conversation and fill the void. I usually would go on almost daily for a short period to chat or just stream myself playing vidya.
I've spent over half of my life using this website and it's really heartbreaking to see it come to an end. Hopefully a new version pops up or something. Ome.tv and some of these other alternatives are not great imo. Ome.tv bans you for no reason and tries to get you to pay for unban.
Either way it's a bummer and you hate to see it. I met a lot of cool people on there and I know some of you are even on this thread right now. It was a huge bummer when they banned the LULZd LULZ tags, but i didn't think it would ever get to the point where they shut it down completely.
Cheers and one love everyone.
ome.tv is the most reddit shit
just read the rules, it's almost like they want people to behave like jehova's witnesses on someone's doorstep
I've spoken to people for entire days on that site. Venting, joking, laughing, they gave me reassurance like no one else. Some of the sweetest things I've ever been told came from Omegle. Take care, fags. You were wonderful.
so true. feels like everyone on here is missing the point entirely. i've had some of the deepest and most thought provoking conversations on there with the most unlikely people. it was truly unique. i feel so sorry for everybody that lives in this world
Farewell Mike "31 M looking for single white mothers only interested in lactating" or whatever his post was. I'm a /d/fag, and I would often use the Transformation tag, which is where I would see him most often.
I don't know if anyone here knows what I'm talking about, but I am sad
Holy shit I saw that guy constantly on the pregnancy tags. He also would talk about the "importance of inbreeding"
I would typically just disconnect on him, but, every so often I would mess with him and chat with him. He's an idiot. But there's part of me that's gonna miss him
>tfw will likely never again see the retards that i kept running into for years on omegle
They were annoying, but I'd grown used to them. Having to deal with unironic autists is a small price to pay when it comes to accountless, anonymous sites. It comes with the territory. Going on for the first time in half a year just for my first chat to be a homosexual saying the same shit he's said since before I started using Omegle was always a nice welcome back and a reminder that I'm not nearly as far gone as I could be
I fucking loved how simple it was. No need for accounts, no need for a wall of text introducing yourself and shit, just simple tags and almost no guidelines on where your chat goes from there. Things were just so laid back
some of those guys were really impressively dedicated. I might never again see Michael, the guys in his 30s with a MILF obsession, who was there with his giant copypasta pretty much every night. I asked him about it and he said he had like eight sessions open at a time on different tags
>implying anything can stop MiCHA(D)el
Fucking kek. I genuinely wonder how many white, middle-aged, large-breasted mothers who lactate he's talked to. Also, what site is that?
Emerald chat
I'm kind of glad that shithole is gone. I spent so many hours on there looking for shitty erp and did several really trashy ones I'm not at all proud of and I'm sure will come back to haunt me one day.
At least now it's easier to get a handle of myself and just cold turkey it.
I'm sorry for everyone else who didn't have impulse control issues from years of internet doping but I am glad its gone, it feels like someone out there doing me a favor.
I kinda feel this way too. I tried to quit several times. But it's over now, and I feel, free. I'm sad, but feel like a weight has been lifted off of me
Me too. The problem was that it's too easy. F-list, discord, /trash/, they all require a certain amount of effort. It was easy to brainlessly just throw some tags on and hit escape endlessly till you found someone to play with.
>a bunch of shitty things and occasionally a decent or good one
that's like everything in life, get over it
I don't remember any of the surely tens of thousands of bad/nothing chats I had, I remember the hundred or so wins where I ended up with an internet girlfriend for a few months that would make me cum once a day or so
i recently told a coworker that i helped a rando on omegle in Tijuana find newly constructed cheap housing. the most random question but he got lucky. rip omegle you will be missed

interesting timing
Would also explain not selling. You can't sell it if you're expected to shut down or be on the hook for the lawsuit.
what were the damages even?
an anonymous person on omegle made my kid strip on camera?
good catch, 99% chance this is the result.
RIP in peace omegle.
The internet really is dying huh?
Or am I just getting old?
Internet has been already dead the last 10+ years thanks to internet centralization. Also check Dead Internet Theory.
The internet's vitality may have been sapped by centralization, corporate giants, and the commodification of data, but it's still a playground of information, dissent, and rebellion for those who dare to seek it. It's not a relic of the past; it's just gone undercover, hiding in the dark corners of the digital world.
>"Internet hasn't changed! You just have to go really undercover even for the most basic stuff like looking for popular memes without getting fake news articles about said memes being racist."
You just replied to a GPT post.
for me it was the "I swear I never met a filipina stan with huge tits" guy that showed up 2/3 years ago and was clearly there almost every day
Probably for the best,but ill miss it
Crazy that there are no good alternatives
homosexuals ruined the thread
scratch that, homosexuals (pedos/furries included) ruined the internet
Normies ruined the internet.
I wonder if this will be a new era of sexual frustration for me or a wakeup that pushes me out of my comfort zone
Damn, that's unfortunate.
Never used the site much but it's gonna be weird to have no omegle now.
F
fond tales of a robot my friend and i affectionately called "the wizard" who was beyond autistic and would talk a lot about hacking and wire fraud
I'm genuinely devasted. Most of my social interaction came from omegle
New chat services will appear, it's easy to program, it's very old technology
new ones will be increasingly monetized and predatory on the consumer. whatever replaces omegle wont be as big, reliable, free, and anonymous
I can have a basic chatroom open tonight, a random chat service up in less than a week, its basic html and php. It's really old tech. I learned this stuff 30 years ago as a teen, do people not html anymore?
then make it. There really arent any good omegle alternatives, now is the time to enter the market and make a clone, seriously
What if i just make a video explaining how chat rooms can be made? I already wrote an article. Would be easy to explain
Start with basic html tutorial i made part1 in flv and maybe I'll mske one about chat rooms next
https://files.catbox.moe/un8rte.flv
do it audio only webrtc p2p don't be retarded
i don't code and host this right now for the same reason i don't host my futaba clone - it would be a legal nightmare
just get jannies bro
do you have a repo somewhere?
>legal nightmare
>not hiding behind the same laws made for massive companies to hide behind
youre a retard and you have no idea what youre talking about
>doesn't understand why this works for companies
lol retard you don't get to hide behind those laws if you aren't loaded enough to fight off a barrage of lawsuits
literally dont care motion to dismiss
I remember annoying people with soundboards and manycam
I also met a group of internet friends on the LULZ tag who I still talk to after almost 10 years
Although I haven't used omegle for some time I'll miss it
where will we go when they shut down LULZ too? you know it's just a matter of time
omegle shut down because it couldnt cope with all the traffic from the third world, and the lolbertarian owner felt too smug to just ban all indian ip ranges
filipinos were a serious problem too
filipino zoomers are highly westernised from manila
they speak good english and have a lot less of that thirdie cope
i was never bothered as much by them as by the hoardes of indians
>they speak good english and have a lot less of that thirdie cope
wrong and wrong
they constantly launch into their disgusting language randomly in the midst of speaking english, because within their small conception of the internet and the world at large, they believe tagalog or whatever is some common enough tongue that people outside of their shithole have any familiarity with it
they're all hellish prudes despite hailing from one of the sex tourism capitals of the world, and they parrot whatever SJW shit is the current status quo on twitter, but they also believe in witches and would commonly get incredibly upset when I claimed I was going to place a death curse upon them
they also consume nothing but media from other, better Asian countries while still clinging to some insane sense of filipino pride
they're much worse than indians, who typically reveal they're from fucking india immediately because they have autism at a cultural level and you can just disconnect immediately
>indians, who typically reveal they're from fucking india immediately because they have autism at a cultural level and you can just disconnect immediately
This is true, but we should not say it out loud. It would be dangerous if they started realizing that people might stick around if they lied about where they were from. Personally I would immediately ask m or f (even though I dont usually care much, I just want to talk) after they said they were from india so that they hopefully would not catch on that I was disconnecting because they were indian and not because they were men.
im white so they dont dare to speak thirdie to me
besides, the indians most of the time arent even that bad other than that they dont understand theyre stale
they add no value yet drain the sites resources
>im white so they dont dare to speak thirdie to me
are you talking about video chat? because I never use that
I'm talking about a normal conversation and they're talking and randomly go "gago ka ma blabla harabama" and I say what the fuck is that and they go "OHHHHH and you're from??" and I disconnect
text chat omegle was never viable, why would you even want to use a downgraded irc server
because it's random and interest-based
and everyone stopped using irc in like 2015
just go on bumble friends or something man
theres plenty of places to find penpals based on interests
>penpals
nagger I use the site to jerk off
it was viable and it was great
Well, it was awful most of the time. But thats just the process. It might take an hour but when it worked it was wonderful
meanwhile it took like 5 minutes to get a decent person on videochat
>they're all hellish prudes despite hailing from one of the sex tourism capitals of the world
Can't be better said. I've met many Filipino milfs who have even never masturbated according to them. They are the most frigid women ever.
from what I've gathered through the internet, SEA girls are either street meat fucktoys down for anything or nuns, and the former group doesn't have much time for the internet while the latter is terminally online
they somehow had a good gender balance though. multiple filipina bitches actually tried to get my contact and go for that green card
Nothing to do with traffic. I agree Indians should have been banned on the spot. Total fucking plague of a race.
it was entirely the traffic though, they made up 90% of the site while omegle was at its peak popularity in years due to trends on social media
that means already higher than normal traffic wouldve increased tenfold by having indians on there
last two men i've "dated" i met on omegle
>it's over
time to start "dating" LULZ men
can't be any worse!
it's uniquely retarded but i actually believe like a year and a half ago when i got drunk all the time and went on omegle and people recognized me and i only talked to people online and everyone in mmmy life thought there was something deeply wrong with me was peak. take me back
The reason omegle was good - and I do not say this lightly - is that mainstream sext/hookup/dating apps/websites dont allow minors so they all ended up on omegle. The fact is that adult women are picky and bitchy because once they get out of high school and live in a dorm or apartment or whatever instead of with their parents they realize their value and can reliably just fuck chads. And once that passes, theyve gotten jaded
>mainstream sext/hookup/dating apps/websites dont allow minors
In which universe?
I remember I used to go on there wearing my bucket helmet and holding my dagger.
One time I met this girl who has a real huge fucking nose, and I was kinda taken aback and didn't say anything for a bit. She started with her saying "yeah my nose is big right?" Since I imagine I'm not the first one to have that reaction.
Odd coincidence is the fact that I'm Lebanese and have a giant nose as well, so I told her "nah you're good" and took off the helmet and she laughed a bit because my nose was about as big if not bigger than hers.
We talked and joked around for a bit and it turned out she was Italian and got shit for her nose a lot. She was very pretty and we ended up masturbating on cam together which was and is the only time I've done something like that.
Hope you're doing well out there for yourself Bianco, and I hope that giant hooked beak plastered on your face still looks as hot as it did back then.
Have you ever watched the steve martin movie roxanne? If not watch it. It's very good. Big nose man falls in love. Its based on old play about Cyrano De Bergerac who had a giant nose but was great at sword fighting and a bit of a romantic.
This hurts so bad, but somehow feels bittersweet. A tragic blow to the remnants of Web 2.0, but in a world without it I somehow feel more free.
>be me
>have a niche fetish hypnosis/mindplay
>would go on omegle to find people who would indulge me
>now I can't
is this my wake up call to finally be normal or are all the degenerates going to migrate somewhere new?
This is what I'm wondering. Did I win freedom or did I lose it? We can't rewind, we've gone too far...
discord exists for these fetishes. even at dishboard you can find many of your favorite fetishes.
This makes me incredibly sad, holy shit. Even though it became infested with bots, early on it was a goldmine.
I had a chat with a girl on there when I was 14 and we bonded over video games. No girl I knew IRL was as funny as her, told me about her cats and how school was going. That was back in 2012.
In fact, I was on the video section a few weeks ago having a laugh for old time's sake. A quick and easy pastime gone just like that.
They are succeeding in killing any remnants of the old Internet and LULZ is next. The future it Twitter and TikTok and you will like it.
Ha, i can make 20 websites in a week. Why are zoomers so dependent on existing services? It's easy to make more
Yeah but nobodies gonna use it
>look at the cool ___ alternative guys
>5 active users
O ye of little faith. This stuff is ridiculously simple. Gen x made the modern internet and we can remake it in a half hour. It's not even difficult. Basic html and php
Why did you ignore the point of his post? Yes, you can remake it easily. Will anyone use it? Probably not. If they do, are you going to maintain it for years without monetizing it? Probably not. If you do, are you going to cave to legal pressure? Yes.
120 dollars for unlimited traffic and space dude, web hosts are cheap as fuck and section 230 means you don't have to respond to any legal pressure, corporations have lied to you, they are simply greedy, if you don't care about money you can do anything
Even the "twitter" that was cool is gone now, no more 2014 fun like calling random people nagger or pedophile, and getting into long arguments with B-list celebrities
>Even the "twitter" that was cool
AHAHAHAHA! In which universe?
>LULZ is next
Not gonna happened since it's owned by a rich businessman, unlike sites like Omegle that were created by regular guys who couldn't support them financially anymore
Goodbye sirs
im going to miss all the LULZ/LULZomegle/omegleLULZ people i talked to you were my only friends 5-6 years ago
I regret not using it as much was waiting to finally get a decent setup oh well
Felt like before tiktok omegle was still being used but on the downlow and now its gone from the new exposure rip
i still used LULZomegle every once in a while when especially lonely what am i going to use now how do people talk to random strangers nowadays
i mean text chat btw not video chat because i know theres lots of video chat websites
>what am i going to use now how do people talk to random strangers nowadays
Unironically chatbots will only get better
this feels like an empty statement. they would get better regardless of this site shutting down, it's effect is negligible.
>this feels like an empty statement. they would get better regardless of this site shutting down, it's effect is negligible
Based retard, i didn't imply omegle shutting down would have an effect. Read again the question I was answering, then kill yourself.
it could easily be implied, anon. if you just had simply answered with chatbots or that chatbots are a great alternative, there would be no room to read more into it. by writting your sentence it's not hard to infer based off his question that it has a direct effect because of omegle shutting down.
Omegle had so much clout. All those celebs that used it. All those social meda influencers that used it. Everyone knew about it and there really isnt any other chat site like it.
im gonna miss stirring shit
and acting smug and high and mighty to the peasantry
and pouring my heart out to people i was never gonna meet again
I can remember going on Omegle at least once a week to cheat on my emo girlfriend with emo women on the internet. Good times being 16. Goodbye see-how-fast-i-can-get-her-pants-off site
lol i constantly chatted and jerked off with omegle girls while i was in relationships.... fuuuuugggg :DDDD
yeah we basically gonna NEED a website that someone advertises on LULZ, cmon, there is so much garbage adverts here, make it count just this once
Web.duolicious.app
I've had a few gem conversations
You have to sign up. Gay
Everyone saying
>There is alternatives
>Just go here
>Just go there
are such full of shit. There are no alternatives. Its unironically over.
I'm trying out emerald chat right now but it's unironically constant dudes jacking off. I know people memed omegle was like that but they had a solid ban system in place and I never really saw cocks after 2015ish. I do think something will come around that is similar but it's definitely the end of an era no doubt. Hate to see it.
There's ome.tv
But there is no tags or text and you have to sign up.
There's nothing like Omegle
>it's unironically constant dudes jacking off.
so just like omegle
where will i pick up egirls now noooo
I would scribble down little notes or summaries after interesting or enjoyable conversations, I wanted to turn it into a big compilation but I probably don't have enough. Would anyone like to share some interesting conversations they had on there?
What were your favorite tags?
tits, ass, sex, mlp, nintendo
discord & LULZ
Incel and /LULZ/. Specially incel. It was an alt e-girl goldmine. I remember just holding random girls hostage on that tag and bitching about my life to them nonstop, god bless their heart.
Being a /d/fag
Transformation
Macrophilia
I mostly stuck to text chats.
All those RPs lost to time, like, tears in rain
Dang, that's pretty sad. I used it like once or twice but never stuck around since it was mostly just people asking a/s/l and then leaving when you put male, but it still hurts to see an Internet legend die like this.
ometv, chatroulette etc
which of these sites have higher quality girls
>not even allowed to meet people online anymore
shame. i was gonna get fit starting tomorrow and then fish for compliments on there. oh well
so where the fuck are the alternatives that don't require a camera or microphone
>so where the fuck are the alternatives that don't require a camera or microphone
Do you require sex roleplay?
No, just talking to people, ideally females over males but text chat is a must and around my age group 18-22
>wahhhh they made me shut my website down
Why not just relocate it to Russia?
Some stupid slut hired a bunch of lawyers to sue the owner because when she was a teenager, she whored her body out for men
As part of it, the owner had to shut it down to avoid being in jail because a foid once again did not want to accept responsibility for being a whore
How come when people use Facebook and meet people who exploit them. Facebook doesn't get blamed?
because Facebook has money to buy silence
Omegle was just a fucking random idea the dude made in college as part of a project
At one point he did get funding for mods, look up omeglewarden
Cuz it's ok when huge corporations do it

(le original post)
i found my first girlfriend on omegle. she leveled me up and helped me ascend. i got out of inceldom thanks to her. we parted ways due to life taking us far apart from each other.
i am married now but on the day of my wedding, she messaged me and wished me happiness and success. she also said she still thought of me often and missed me. i still think of her too, but ill always love my wife and be loyal to her
>ill always love my wife and be loyal to her
Huge mistake
not in my culture. we arent like you westerners who sell out for sex and money
>not in my culture. we arent like you westerners who sell out for sex and money
Then I take it back, I thought you were a fellow burger
>we arent like you westerners who sell out for sex and money
DOUBT
Do not underestimate the power of the BBC
porn addict
bbc is a myth
>porn addict
>bbc is a myth
Forget porn, check the stats. BBC is real
I meet my fiest pseudo e-gf on omegle.
She was the first girl who really showed any interest in me, and for some reason the quality of her mic on discord was always terrible, so we had to keep meeting to vc on omegle.
She was fun and I don't harbor any bad feelings for her ghosting me.
I just hope shes ok because I remember she accidently made chlorine gas once when trying to clean.
Nigga was incompetent and couldn't run his site,
There was this guy on the site that would ddoss anyone he didnt like. I heard from other people on omegle he was targeting the owner and threatening to release his real dox and other blackmail.
Someone make another thread we are not done mourning the loss
You really dont know what you got till you lose it.
Bump limit is 500. Lets max this one first.
what's a good alternative? I need to find a place to talk to foreign girls about pissing
Make your own websites frens. Learn how to start first with my basic html tutorial. It's in flv format with a robot voice. Do something with it and then I'll make one about chat rooms next. I'm writing a tutorial for book printing procedure right now. This shit ain't hard.
https://files.catbox.moe/un8rte.flv
>This shit ain't hard.
Making the website isn't, what's hard is getting people to use it and then keeping on top of moderation and protecting yourself
You don't have to moderate it at all. Section 230 makes a person responsible for their own damn posts
Make a new Omegle yourself then if you think it's so easy to maintain
Like I said it doesn't need to be maintained. I have made many websites and chatrooms and computer program and they ALL run themselves. I never look back. I don't know why anybody thinks that you need to. That's a rather israeli concept. White people just make shit and move on. They don't feel they need to micro-manage other people's thoughts, ideas, feelings, or actions.
You keep shilling this. Why don't YOU make an omegle clone and start shilling that instead homosexual
I've already made an endless number of websites, computer programs, chat rooms, and video games. I'm old and tired and I'm trying to pass on my knowledge before I die you ingrate. Zoomers are lazy and don't know how to do ANYTHING and don't read ANYTHING. So thank me for creating a video tutorial to teach them how to do basic html and thank me for sharing it with them since all I'm hearing right now is how sad they are a chat site got shut down and how they need an alternative. But teach a man to fish... can you finish the rest?
Why learning anything when GPTs can do everything
They actually can't, and guess who programs them? Do you want to be controlled by AI or do you want to control AI? Do you want to be Bill Gate's little bitch? Do you want to replace Omegle or do you want to bitch and moan about it?
Nice messiah complex
There's a lot more to it than just knowing how to set up a site that functions like that. Yes something will eventually replace it but it won't be quite the same. Many friendships and memories have come from Omegle, of course people are sad about it. It's like if a restaurant that's been around for 15 years closes down and you're like "I don't know what the big deal is, just make another one lol"
I appreciate you putting together I guide on it but you're acting like you're the last person on earth who has this knowledge, get over yourself lol
A person with a messiah complex would do it himself and gain a gratuity for doing it. Instead I'm teaching zoomers how to do it FOR FREE because I'm not going to be here. I'm old. Don't you get it? Gen X is old now. We're dying. We made all of the shit zoomers use and we're retiring and dying and zoomers have their own needs, but have no idea how to replace or maintain the stuff Gen Xers made for ourselves, for the millenials and for them. So there's only one solution. EDUCATION dispels the lie of the globalist that these problems are insurmountable and provides MOTIVATION. It's easy. Get busy.
you're wasting your efforts, brother. people here are pretty much a lost cause.
Damn shame, I met some lifelong friends on there back in the day, like 2016 ish. And more impressionable young girls as well. This will be a loss
where do I go to jack off with strangers now wtf?
Anyone else get "paired" in rooms with 2 other people on emerald chat? Site fucking sucks
how many years do you think LULZ has left
You are all going to think this is pathetic, and it is. But, unironically, doing TF TG roleplays on Omegle is what helped me discover my trans identity.
I'm going to miss Omegle, even if by the end, the ERPs got bad, and I was more so often having genuine conversation with people there, I'll still miss it
