Could you build this?

Partial While basic WebRTC chat with matching logic is straightforward to vibe code, scaling anonymous video/text chat requires robust anti-abuse, real-time media server clustering, and automated NSFW moderation.

What it would actually take: Building a reliable Omegle alternative requires a signaling backend using WebSockets, WebRTC TURN/STUN infrastructure (e.g., Coturn or LiveKit/Janus), and low-latency matchmaking in Redis. Crucially, it demands high-throughput automated computer vision moderation (AWS Rekognition / Fal.ai) to block illegal and NSFW streams in real time, alongside DDoS and spam mitigation.
