Chat, sometimes formatted as /chat, is a feature introduced in wasteof2. It is a global live chat accessible to anybody with a wasteof.money account.
Jeffalo added it to demonstrate the power of a new socket.io based backend. On September 12th 2021, he challenged himself to see whether he could add a live chat to production in less than an hour, which he succeeded in doing.[1] Chat was added to the wasteof3 beta on August 6th, 2022.
Functionality
Messages in the chat can be typed in via a text box on the bottom of the page. Messages are public to anyone viewing the chat page at the time the message is sent. The messages used to be logged in a channel in wasteof.money’s official Discord server, but the channel has since been privated for various reasons.
Since sent messages aren’t stored on the wasteof.money database, reloading the page will cause all messages on the page at the time to disappear.
