For those that don’t know, rabb.it was a site where you basically had a chatroom and a virtual pc that was shared to everyone in the room. It was used to get together and watch youtube/plex/netflix/whatever together, and everyone was able to control the browser on the virtual PC. I don’t even think you needed to have an account to join a room, but it’s been so long I don’t remember anymore.
So I’m looking for something like that, just a virtual PC/browser + chatroom that people can join and watch/control, ideally without even needing to make an account. Does something like that exist?
I think Neko might fit the bill. I used it for a couple years on a VPS and it was perfectly adequate for my needs. Keep in mind that it’s a resource hog and has no arm64 support the last time I checked. It’s hosting an X11 session with a chrome browser window (by default) and streaming it over webrtc.
This is precisely what I was looking for, thanks. Seems like the dev was inspired by the old rabb.it site as well and created it once it was shut down
That’s great! Hopefully you get some use out of it. IIRC it was relatively straight forward to get stood up. I probably have a docker-compose kicking around somewhere. If you’d like to see it, just let me know.
