Just finished my CS masters so I had some more free time again.

When I saw that hnch.at was still a free domain, I felt like I had to rise to the occasion.

Would love to connect and am planning to add interest-based matching.

Just hop on and enter - you will be notified upon match via sound.

It just loads infinitely.

    Only if nobody else is queued, otherwise it should match you with someone instantly.

Doesn't work.

pretty cool what you've made

    Thank you!

    Unfortunately most users so far seem to suspect they are talking to an AI or that it's not real somehow ...

      well, that's a challenge. maybe add a captcha to help with this?

      • yscodesOP 2 years ago

        Thought about it but ideally I want to do without captcha ... I think they can be a burden and may not be necessary for tiny niche sites like this.

        For now I have some other bot mitigations in place so I wanted to see how far they'd get me.

          No, I meant that with captcha the people who come in will have a sense of trust because they know that everyone has to do that test.
