Show HN: If you need discord/Reddit alternative I have created unique web chat

I've already shared early version that wasn't launched yet. Now I fixed some things and it's ready to be used. I have recreated a few posts from HN just to show how it would look like. In short it is:

Web chat

Anonymous, no registration

Channels and threads, each thread is a real time web chat

Enter name and if channel is not taken it's yours

Easy upload (mp4 only and 8mb limit for now)

Old content periodically deleted, but since few users for now it's on hold

No upvote/downvote system

4chan style reply system.

It was implemented with meteor.js

Are you going to add tree style comments view (like here on HN or on Reddit)?

If you find a post that starts interesting conversation you can select it as root (or simply double click) and you will get that conversation - all replies and their children, grandchildren etc. So I don't think there is a real need to have tree style comments as the approach to this is different. Reply system with ability to select conversations is one of the main differentiators from other similar sites. I know people might find it uncomfortable in the beginning simply because it's unusual but I think it's superior system to upvotes/tree style.
