minus-squareseitanic@lemmy.sdf.orglinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up29arrow-down34·1 year agoThat’s nuts! I thought that Omegle was text only. I had no idea that they paired you with people on video. WTF thought that was a good idea?!?
minus-squarerigatti@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up39·1 year agoIt had video for a reeeaally long time.
