Omegle definitely had moderation. It’s less to visible to the end users but certainly was in place.
Your description is reductive because it focuses heavily on the bad while mostly ignoring the good.
It’s weird that you’re both happy Omegle is gone and happy that something can take its place. Arguably the thing that takes its place will be worse because it doesn’t have the years of dedication and experience behind it.
You also mention AI moderation while totally ignoring the fact that Omegle already had that. Just because it looked like the same old website that doesn’t mean they weren’t adopting new tech.
The result was still unlabeled sexual content. They had categories specifically for that, but it was rarely adhered to from my own experience
If you’re complaining my perspective is reductive how is yours any different? You could argue whatever takes Omegle’s place will be worse, sure. I respect that you have a different opinion
I’ll adjust my complaint to the need for better AI moderation. You’re ignoring that the Omegle was shut down shortly after a lawsuit settlement surrounding child exploitation. I don’t personally believe organizations or people should be able to outgrow something like that without consequences
