Show HN: my weekend project, Vidless. "CloudApp" for video chat.
I always find myself frustrated by how many steps I have to take to video chat with someone online.
There's always too much software to download and install, and too many accounts to remember. The high-end, high-price Cisco conferencing systems I've used are especially fragile.
So I built Vidless in a weekend for myself, and I hope you find it useful too. Just create a room and share the link, and you'll be chatting in seconds.
You can invite several people (I haven't really tested a max yet), and chats on Vidless are always private.
Enjoy!
- jordanf 15y agoI find myself pretty regularly frustrated by the number of steps it takes to video chat with someone. Too much software to install, too many accounts to remember. The high-end Cisco hardware I've used is especially unpredictable. So I spent a weekend and hacked together Vidless. Want to video chat with someone? Just create a room and shoot them the URL, and you'll be chatting in seconds. I built Vidless for myself, but I hope you all find it useful, too. Enjoy!
- geofffox 15y agoIs this one-on-one or are more connections possible?
