Maybe create a default room for the HN crowd to join? I also had the same experience as OP... "nobody is here".

Seems like the link with the specific ID in my above comment has become the de-facto shared room now, at least as long as my comment stays at the top :)

It's not very umm... cooperative, in there lol.

Yea sorry it's our bad, we didn't implement cursor time-slicing in the demo, even though we actually support it on the API: https://www.npmjs.com/package/@hyperbeam/web#setting-permiss...

Hmm, what I was thinking of was that everyone seemed to be competing with each other to click random UI elements on the virtual browser as rapidly as possible, I assume because there wasn't a way to speak with one another / coordinate. Or maybe I just missed the chat area?

Yeah we kept the MVP lean and didn't add chat or audio/video calling. Our goal (which we're not meeting) is to keep the Three.js example line count below 200.

We'll probably make a new project which is more of a product and less of a code example in the future.

Looks good so far, looking forward to seeing more :)
