Does anyone have any recommendations of a good place you can chat with people casually without the intent of it being romantically involved. Every app seems to be all about bots, sexual interactions, and such.

Just looking for people interested in chatting via text and such (really don't understand why people like video chats, I could see if it were romantically inclined perks in that, but it's not for that). Intent I believe is to combat loneliness without having to enter into something where one party is hoping to find a relationship or fuck buddy.

Honestly couldn't even care if names are exchanged.

IRC? Discord? Delphi Forums?

Fuck I feel old. What does IRC stand for? At 35 I'm starting to think the world left me behind... Haha

Nah man. IRC is older than you. That was my first introduction to online chat rooms/communities. Of course, haven't used it in almost 20 years.

Internet Relay Chat, alright
