I’m also working on a similar “add conversations to any page” project, but trying it with a forum-style angle + browser plugin: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;threaded.live" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;threaded.live</a> (sorry for the shameless plug and the silly landing page, it’s just an attempt to make it look ok-ish - the very early and embarrassing prototype is linked in the page footer)

Is the original link paged supposed to have working chat? I don&#x27;t see any messages (in Firefox or Chrome) and if I type and hit enter, the text goes away but does not appear anywhere.<p>EDIT: Went back and now a bunch of text is appearing, though the chats I&#x27;ve entered do not yet seem to appear anywhere.<p>Any my network tab shows that when I hit enter nothing happens... (but the text goes away)

Doesn&#x27;t work on Firefox: &quot;Firefox can’t establish a connection to the server at wss:&#x2F;&#x2F;side.land&#x2F;gun.&quot;

I _love_ little projects like this, but this seems chaotic to the point of unusability with a lot of messages.

Very nice!
