Chat is an 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[citation needed] to see whether he could add a live chat to production in less than an hour, which he succeeded in doing. /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 are also relayed to a channel in wasteof.money’s official Discord server.
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.
