Hm, the type of some of these questions resemble the type of the personal questions used for password recovery by some companies. As a paranoid person, I am reluctant to disclose this information to unknown people.

#93Is there a chance for chat instead of video call? I like the idea but I'm not exposing myself in video. I know it "ruins" the experience but each one to its own.
Yea this ! Wanted to join (I get that fuzzy warm IRC feeling of old) but I'm not putting on my camera - sorry :/

You already started the discussion :)

#95Hey folks! I built Virus Cafe to help you make a friend in 2 minutes! My goal is to help people stuck indoors because of COVID-19 (or police curfews) to make meaningful connections with strangers. Here's how it works: 1. You are matched with a random partner for a video chat 2. You're given a deep question to discuss. You have 2 minutes! 3. The only rule is: no small talk! Small talk is the worst and I'm on a mission…
Those aren't deep questions; they're deeply personal questions, and something not appropriate to talk about with complete strangers.
I strongly recommend you re-evaluate your question set. Personal questions are dangerous with the wrong kind of person.

Ah, for me it was cosmic-deflect-attitude. I really struggled with it in my teenage years.

#97Earlier quoted context omitted.
I hope it's Antifa (a terrorist organization), and not regular kids that go out and beat up old ladies.
Are they organized? Are they able to kick people out? They have an official communications channel to take credit for the crimes they commit, and disown crimes they don't want to be associated with?

#98Just to say I love the background animation when one refuse to allow the camera. Attention to details is everything.

#99The "click the emojis" doesn't increase in difficulty ;) Are the 200 questions publicly visible somehwere?
They're in a JSON file in the repo at the moment. I'll open source them later today when I have a spare moment: https://github.com/feross
I'm also interested in the questions. Couldn't find the file (or the repo for virus cafe) in the repo list

I am glad someone noticed!
