A Camsurf alternative built for real conversations
Camsurf is a free random video chat that markets itself on moderation and a clean, ad-light experience across web and mobile.
Camsurf is moderated random chat. Joust is moderated too, but instead of open-ended chat you get matched for a real debate on a topic you actually care about.
Why people switch to Joust
- A point, not a roulette.You're matched on a topic and take a side, For vs Against, instead of cycling through random strangers.
- Public & moderated. Debates happen on a live stage anyone can watch and chat in, with moderation to keep it civil and nudity-free.
- The crowd participates. A challenge timer rotates new debaters in, and viewers can flag a debater off or vote to extend the clock.
