I made Open Terminal, a global chat where everyone shares the same space.

It uses WebSockets for real time messaging, so messages appear instantly as people join and chat.

The interface has a terminal inspired vibe, with a few simple commands you can use to interact with the chat.

I built it mostly because I thought it would be fun to see what happens when you put everyone in one chat room.

People on X and Hacker News seemed to love it, so I wanted to share it here too.

I’ve never gotten a feature request like that before. That’s actually a really cool idea I’ll definitely look into adding it!

Thx
