How I built a simple Omegle alternative called Strango

Why I built Strango

When Omegle shut down I realized how many people actually enjoyed random conversations with strangers online.

But most alternatives I tried had problems:

  • required account signup
  • too many ads
  • filled with bots

So I built a small project called Strango.

The idea was simple:
• open the website
• get matched instantly
• start chatting

No account required.

It's still an early project and I'm improving the experience.

I’d really appreciate feedback from developers and builders here.

You can try it here:

Quick update:

I'm currently improving the mobile UI and stranger matching.

If anyone here has experience building real-time chat apps or WebSocket systems, I'd love to hear your suggestions.
