Driftroom

Talk to real people. No strings.

Most social apps want an account, your phone number, and a subscription before you can meet anyone new. Driftroom wants nothing. Open the page and you're in.

Why it's different

• No accounts. No sign-up, email, phone number or password. You get a random name each time you open the page.
• Nothing stored. There's no database. Messages pass through our relay in memory only and vanish when you close the tab.
• Your IP stays hidden. You only ever connect to Cloudflare, never to another person, so nobody you chat with can see your IP address.
• Free. No subscriptions, no premium tier, no ads.
• You choose who you talk to. Nobody can pull you into a private chat; you accept or decline every invite.

What you can do

• Topic rooms: join a room from the bar, or type any topic to create one.
• Nearby: meet people within 5, 10, 15 or 20 km. Your location is rounded to a grid square of that size on your device; your exact position never leaves it.
• Live rooms: see which rooms are busy and how many people are online.
• Private 1:1 chats: tap "Chat 1:1" next to someone under People. They get a card in their chat to accept or decline. 1:1 chats are end-to-end encrypted.
• Private groups: create a locked room and share its link. Messages are end-to-end encrypted with a key that exists only in the link, so nobody without it, not even our relay, can read them.
• Invite friends: share a link that drops them straight into your room.
• Bot-resistant: everyone passes a quick human check before they can connect, and the relay limits how fast anyone can post.
• Block: hide anyone instantly. Floods and repeated spam are filtered automatically.

Stay safe

• Other users can't see your IP address, but Cloudflare, which runs our relay, sees it like it does for any website. We don't log it.
• Never share your real name, address, photos or accounts with strangers.
• Nobody here can verify who anyone is. Leave any chat that feels wrong.
• Because nothing is stored, there is no history, no moderation team, and no way to recover messages.

Disclaimer

• You use Driftroom at your own risk. Driftroom is provided "as is", without warranties of any kind.
• You are responsible for what you share. Driftroom, its creators and operators are not responsible for any personal information, photos, links, files or other content you or anyone else shares, or for what others do with it.
• We don't store, moderate or delete messages. Messages pass through our relay in memory and are never saved, so there is nothing for us to hand over, recover or take down. Private groups and 1:1 chats are end-to-end encrypted, so we can't read them at all.
• We are not responsible for other users. We don't verify anyone's identity, age or intentions. Any meeting, deal, payment or relationship that starts here is entirely between you and the other person.
• Never share passwords, OTPs, bank or card details, government IDs, your home address or intimate images. Anyone asking for these is likely a scammer.
• Adults only. Driftroom is meant for people 18 and over.
• Don't break the law. Harassment, threats, illegal content and fraud are not allowed. You are solely responsible for complying with the laws where you live.
• If you're in danger, contact your local emergency services, not people in a chat room.

How it works

Driftroom is a static page plus a small relay running on Cloudflare. Your browser connects only to the relay, which passes messages to everyone else in the room in memory and keeps nothing. Public rooms are readable by anyone in them; private groups and 1:1 chats are encrypted in your browser before they leave it. Your identity is a random id made fresh each visit.
