Yeah your filters don't offer much else though. We already have filtering by age, tags, region, gender. Filtering by new and time online I guess is kind of useful but not that much.
You're right, with Chaturbate's new filter menu, my menu isn't very different. When I created the site, these filters didn't exist. However, on my site, you can filter by the live title and not just by tags, and it's also possible to filter for only new rooms in a specific tag, which Chaturbate doesn't allow.
I don't think it's as bad as people are saying. You have basically just used bare bones Bootstrap though so I don't think you can say it's a particularly amazing interface. I use Bootstrap for my development projects because it's easy to use but I know it doesn't give a professional or clean look.
This is the first website I've created, so I used Bootstrap to make it easier, but I agree it's nothing special. However, I think it looks nicer than Chaturbate, which was made by a company that makes millions and has the same interface from a decade ago.
You can search by the number of hours a streamer has streamed for on CBHours, infact that's the main focus of the site. CBExplorer offers more features as well for tag searching and has some additional tools that benefit Cam Performers a lot.
Interesting, I didn't know about these sites. I'll study them and see what I can implement. Thanks for the feedback.
I think the issue is you don't offer enough yet.
I know I've done little, but what I did took over 1 year to accomplish. I agree that filters are no longer a unique feature with the Chaturbate update, but the main features that led me to create the site are:
1.
Infinite scroll: Paging through is tedious and time-consuming. If the site can load pages automatically, why not do it?
2.
Real-time preview: How often has a model lost a viewer because the user scrolled past and her room appeared in a frame that wasn't on the screen? Thirty seconds to update is an eternity; by then, I've already moved on. I implemented auto-refresh every 1 second on the site and provided an option for users to turn it off.
3.
Change grid size: My vision is poor, why are the camera views so small in the menu? I added an option for users to change the grid to as many columns per camera as they want, saved in cache so they don't have to change it every time they visit. Additionally, they can adjust the grid size for each screen size. If you have 2, 3, 4 monitors, each can have a different grid size, just drag the slider. Each resolution type is saved in cache to avoid reconfiguration.
4.
Watch up to 4 rooms simultaneously: If watching 1 room is good, why not watch 4 at once? How often have I waited for a ticket show that some models only do at the end of their live, and missed it because I was doing something else with the sound low in the background? Now you can watch 4 cams simultaneously on the second monitor and see, for example, when the model returns, etc.Blacklist a room: If you've used the platform, you know models sometimes engage in scamming practices. I just don't want to see these models anymore, why can't I block them? On my site, you just click the X and they'll never appear again. If you click by mistake, there's a button to view the blacklist and another click removes them from it.
5.
Sorting methods: The new Chaturbate filter doesn't offer any way to sort the results that appear.
Apart from what I've mentioned, I agree that the rest doesn't differ from Chaturbate, it's just personal preference.
Also if you're linking to illegal recordings of Cam performers you can fuck right off
I have already removed it from the website, I apologize for that. I provided a more detailed explanation in the other comment if you're interested.
Missing privacy policy
Ok so as an absolute minimum you should include a privacy policy. Which you haven't. I signed up with an anonymous account and there is also no way to delete my account. This is a massive breach of GDPR and makes me wonder if you have absolutely any idea what you are doing. You should also ideally have a 2257 included.
The website is not hosted in Europe, but I'm already working on implementing that. I didn't want to just grab a ready-made template from the internet and throw it up there. I wanted to consult a lawyer for this, but it's going to cost me a lot. If anyone wants to delete their data, just send an email to
support@chaturbetter.com and I will delete it. Not that I store much; only the login, password, and the names of the rooms you've put on the blacklist are being saved. Everything else is stored in the browser's local storage.
I really appreciate your feedback; so far, you've been the person who has helped me the most. From your comments, I could tell that you really visited the website and looked closely at it. I'll make the adjustments you suggested. This is the first website I'm creating, and I'm learning a lot of new things from it.
From the bottom of my heart, thank you for dedicating your time to this.
