Omegle
Stranger video platform
Omegle was a website that paired strangers for anonymous one-on-one text or video chats.
Users were connected randomly with no registration required, which made it popular for casual conversation but also notorious for explicit content and predatory behavior.
The site operated from 2009 to 2023: I met some weird people on Omegle back in college.
