Embeddable yet? How long until I can write a bot? Would love some design tweaks that allow the conversation to flow a little better. But, excited that this exists. How is Leah Culver’s https://grove.io/ going?

Product Hunt

Thanks, @shelkie & @karj! I enjoyed the "chapp" (is that what we're calling it?) this morning. ;) Some product feedback (some I know is obvious): 1) Speed - it's a little annoying to have to wait for the first message to send before I can even begin typing the next one 2) Click to @mention and Auto-Complete - make it easier for me to reply to specific people in the thread 3) More Personal and "Alive" - it's not clear who's in the room (active or afk) and some visual identifier such as a profile pic, would add more personality/self-expression to the conversation How are people using the product so far? Any common behavior?

Credit to @riptari on TechCrunch for surfacing this gem. I was recently looking for a simple web-based chat room and couldn't find any good solutions (cc @FurqanR). On Chapp you can join trending topics or create your own. Naturally, I just created a Product Hunt room. Join me! P.S. it supports animated GIFs.

It's a little buggy and not nearly as polished as Slack or other more established chat apps, but I like its simplicity. Having a good convo w/ some PH folks now.

agree with @rrhoover, it is a bit buggy and it was fun talking to people on producthunt :) I do like it's simple and I've been looking for something like this to create a chat room fast. I hope it didn't require a registration and allowed anonymous logins.

Hey @thomasknoll Still very early days for Chapp. We have a lot of ideas for its future, but for now we're focused on building traction and improving the UX. Embedding on other sites would certainly move it toward becoming a platform.

Really appreciate you bringing some folks over to Chapp @rrhoover. Let us know if there's anything we can do to make the service better for you and the Product Hunt people.
