minus-squareseitanic@lemmy.sdf.orglinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up29·8 months agoThat’s nuts! I thought that Omegle was text only. I had no idea that they paired you with people on video. WTF thought that was a good idea?!?
minus-squarerigatti@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up39·8 months agoIt had video for a reeeaally long time.
minus-squareubermeisters@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up20·8 months agoAnd that video was full of naked men masturbating, and curious kids, for just as long. It’s needed to be dealt with for waaaaaayyyyyy too long now.
minus-squareShunkW@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up12·8 months agoI may be misremembering but I feel like it always had video.
minus-squareShunkW@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·8 months agoFair enough. Maybe it had video by the time I discovered it or my memory is just failing me.
