- Unfriended - Dark web (2018, https://www.imdb.com/title/tt4761916/) aren't you thinking of this one instead? I've seen it and it was pretty good. When I saw your comment I was like, no way it was from 2014.


I think that is a sequel to the one from 2014.


Not yet sorry, pretty busy doing other stuff but if this becomes helpful and interesting to people I will look into adding this feature! Thanks for the recommendation


Sorry guys, it was a busy day and just realized this kinda picked up, cloudflare workers reached their limit and I am now looking into a solution.

In the meantime, it can be accessed via https://www.notion.so/cd2571b6bd0b434f8bf2042d5fa0d6ea


I'm not sure it's correct to say "remote first" for Facebook. IIRC, they're just giving the option for trusted employees, not hiring straight out of college for remote.


That's very fair, I will fix some of the copy to be more accurate.


And we are back, sorry I didn't expected to reach Cloudflare Workers free plan limit that fast.


What solution did you come up with? Or did you just convert to a paid plan?


I just ended up paying $5/mo to have 10M worker requests per month. Not too bad.


fixed, sorry about that.


similar to netflixparty.com except:

- it also supports prime/youtube/vimeo

- it has an audio/video chat instead of a simple text chat

- it doesn't require a chrome extension

- it doesn't actually sync across the viewers? (start time, play/pause)

does it mean you can literally support other platforms without any integration?


>it doesn't actually sync across the viewers? (start time, play/pause)

What is even the point then? It's litearlly the only feature I expect from such service.


From the description on homepage:

> Wait until the countdown hits zero and your movie night starts

So it does sync across viewers (I haven't actually tried it yet).


It syncs the start time. As it works without a browser extension I can not sync the actual movie as I do not get the information.

What I am planing to do is to allow a later join into the movie night by calculating how much time has passed since the movie night start and then send the late attendee to that time code in the movie. Not supported by all services tough :/


I agree and that's why I pointed it out. you could literally just put any URL to any website and call it a party if there is no sync capabilities.


As written ion the page, it would be able to support any website on the internet, as it does a simple redirect to the website on countdown 0.

What I want to provide is an auto start and a jump to timecode 0. All platforms that allow that via query parameters can be supported by binge together :D


I think there could be latency because of the buffering.

A solution could be to stop the movie for everyone, get the timecode. Send everyone the new timecode and start the movie from there after the countdown.

(heck, this could even be a sync/break feature. If someone’s internet connection gets disrupted everyone can stop and sync. Or if they want a movie break, they can do it like this.)


Metastream already does this and it has to manually support a few hundred sites and the experience is truly awful. There are some sites where you have to manually enable autoplay but you know what? Most people will forget to do that. So now your little movie night is a major tech support waste of time. The need to constantly ask "are you synced?" Gets old pretty fast. Screen sharing is the way to go in my opinion but most capture programs capture the audio of the entire desktop. I have already created my own solutions for these problems.


Someone has to say it... Squatty Potty


Does the name come from the french "j'écris" (I write) phonetic ? That would be cool :D


You nailed it perfectly!!!! Jekri.com was taken, so Gekri.com was born xD

But most of the time Gekri is pronounced "Guékri" ^^'


That's a great product! But... I can't change the language of your website?!


Our site is internationalized with our product and we have Spanish translations. If you change your Chrome language setting to Spanish you can see it. We'll plan to add a manual language flag soon.
