Netflix is DRM'd anyway so it's a non-starter. Try taking a screenshot of a Netflix stream. Not many people realize it'll just result in black pixels for that area.
Really? Because I just took these https://imgur.com/a/LvbVZtq
That's a really bad name for the Arab world :P
I've been hosting a YouTube trippy video room for 30 minutes now. My only suggestion is to kill the pop over modal every time somebody wants to join. Kills your ability to interact as the modal can pop up anytime Should just let anyone pop in without the need to accept every individual person
I'm planning to add the ability to skip the need to request to join public rooms soon!

How does realtime screensharing with something like Netflix work? If it's actual screensharing, wouldn't it be super laggy and low quality? Do you somehow get each user to stream the exact same Netflix URL in the sense that it's not actually screensharing but rather there are just multiple clients (which sounds like it could be a legal problem...)?

It got extra weird when you would paste the screenshot into paint with the video still playing. Suddenly you had a video playing inside paint and could even draw on it...
Aah, good old times :)

Which platform? It might also depend on the content, hmmm.
Makes me wonder what the profit model is, and when the thing is going to die forever.

This is pretty cool - I'm wondering what like, makes it different than just having a zoom call or something on discord? I can tell it's different I just don't know how to articulate it and I'm curious how you'd differentiate it from other ways to hang out online? Looks really cool!
I would say the difference lies in the ability to start interactive apps in addition to chatting/communicating

This reminds me of the old windows 98 times, where windows would just draw a blackish rectangle where the video should be and the graphics card would replace the pixels with actual video on-screen. If you hit the print button, you would just copy the windows graphic buffer with no video to be seen. It got extra weird when you would paste the screenshot into paint with the video still playing.

That still happens with certain hardware setups today, a similar concept to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chroma_key
