It is a web-based chat site. Better with a laptop than phone. A bit old school in its style, but some good people there.

Is it a chatroom format

@HumanEarth I won;t use it because you can;t use a vpn there
HumanEarth · F
Oh, So I won't be using it either. I use a VPN as well
oldguy73 · 70-79, M
@HumanEarth I knew you are a smart woman
OverTheHill · 61-69, M
@HumanEarth yes exactly
OverTheHill · 61-69, M
@oldguy73 i didn't know
@oldguy73 I have vpn and it works jsut fine. an I doing something wrong?
@HumanEarth That reminds me of Chatzy.

Does it preserve your session across different devices? That's one reason I don't like kik. You have to log in when you switch to a different device, and you lose the conversation history. That doesn't happen with Discord, Slack, or Telegram.

Spinchat doesn't seem to have an app.

@LeopoldBloom I only use desktop, I don't use apps

@nonsensiclesnail you must be lucky, many chat sites want your real ip address, if something bad happens, they can trace you, if you are using a paid vpn and got through, you are very lucky
HumanEarth · F
I have a paid VPN and I get though most places.
OverTheHill · 61-69, M
@LeopoldBloom They have an app, but it is garbage. And yes you have to log on for each device. Chat room histories are not saved, but conversations, like sw messages, are.

Spin Chat won't let Mr create account. It says I'm using a throw away e-mail. But I have been using the same one for over 20 years. But its a throw away email

@HumanEarth weird
@OverTheHill Thanks, I'll pass.
@HumanEarth @oldguy73 I don't trust VPNs, they could very well be government spying programs designed to catch those who visit sites they deem subversive, like how the FBI now considers parents who speak up at school board meetings as domestic terrorists.
@OverTheHill Why had weird suddenly become the new It word?

FBI also says people that don't carry cellphones, wear analog watches and people that want privacy terrorist to.

Guess what I'm terrorist then. If I disappear in a couple of days. Then they made me disappear
@HumanEarth It wouldn't surprise me, next we'll have cameras pointing everywhere from every building, like in London.
HumanEarth · F
That's already happening in the major cities
@HumanEarth From every building pointing everywhere, in US cities? That technically violates the 4th amendment, unreasonable search, no consent is given.
HumanEarth · F
Well lets see. Sky cameras on buildings, in buildings, on highways, cameras in your phones,TVs, vehicles, ATMs, banks, filling stations and so much more.

They are already in violation of our 4th amendment rights and our 2nd amendment right
@HumanEarth I got this three years ago with antigunner BinBiden's $1,400, my Beretta 92FS 9mm semiautomatic pistol, he told us to spend it, so I did, thumbing my nose at him by exercising our second amendment right.
@HumanEarth The 4th Amendment says "The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated." It doesn't say anything about not being observed when you're out in public. There's functionally no difference between a camera in a train station and a policeman standing there.

As for the 2nd Amendment, I don't know about you, but I own several guns and no government agent has showed up at my house yet to take them away.
HumanEarth · F
I have them to and they will come for them one day.
