WOW !! Consolechat creator here. This thing started as a joke and honestly I didn’t expect this much traffic. Our servers can't no longer keep up with it: D

Thanks for trying this out and for all the feedback! A more stable release will follow later.

Shameless plug: i'm the cofounder of Supabase (https://supabase.io an open source Firebase alternative). I'd be happy to help you convert this over to if you want to avoid the servers altogether. We have realtime+auth built in, so it's great for chat apps.

I think it has heaps of potential.

Make it like IRC, I'd often pop open my console just to have some dev chats.

I've been throwing my open source projects API requirements on Firebase Functions these days.

It just works, has no down time and relatively cheap.
