Text chat with strangers — no camera, just conversation

Strangerhood is random text chat done properly: one stranger, one conversation, in your browser. No video, no profile, no audience — the format where you actually talk.

Why text-only is the point, not a limitation

Video chat turned stranger sites into a game of skip-roulette — and worse. Text is the format where two people actually say something: slower, more anonymous, and nothing to perform. If you've ever stayed for the conversation on one of these sites, it was probably in the text section.

A random text chat that stays decent

Every message runs through live moderation — in English, French, Spanish, Italian, Portuguese, Turkish and Russian — hate gets blocked, reports lead to real bans, and everyone here passed an 18+ check. Swearing and banter are fine; abuse isn't. That's the whole policy.

Looking for the old Omegle text section?

This is that idea, rebuilt: you're anonymous to the person you meet — no real name, no profile — but accountable to the service, which is the part Omegle never had. Add interests to match with people who share them, or just hit start and see who you get.

Frequently asked questions

Is there any video or cam here?

No — Strangerhood is text-only by design. If you want cam chat, this isn't the site for you.

Can I text a stranger without signing up?

In some regions you can chat as a guest; elsewhere a quick sign-in (your email is never shown to anyone) keeps bans meaningful. No profile, no real name, nothing public either way.

Is random text chat safe?

Safer than the alternatives: live moderation in seven languages, 18+ age verification, report and block that actually stick, no ads, and kept conversations are the only thing stored.

What happened to Omegle's text chat?

Omegle shut down in 2023. Strangerhood rebuilds the text-chat part — random 1:1 conversation with a stranger — with the accountability Omegle lacked.
