Why Australians moved on from webcam sites
After Omegle closed, the eSafety Commissioner’s warnings about random video chat became hard to ignore: unwanted exposure, recordings and extortion attempts were common. Chitmet was designed without a camera. You talk by text or by voice, and nobody can ask you to show anything.
It is also lighter on data. The site is a few hundred kilobytes, works on any phone, and does not need an app — handy on a prepaid plan.
How to get good matches
Add interests before you start: AFL, NRL, cricket, surfing, uni, gaming, travel, music. Chitmet shows what you share the moment you connect. Set the country to Australia for local talk, or leave it on Anywhere with English to meet people in New Zealand, the UK, the US, India and the Philippines.
Liked the chat? Send a Keep in touch request to add the person as a friend. Did not? Skip — it asks you to confirm first.
