OpenParty keeps everyone's video in sync so you can watch together with friends, wherever they are. Start a party on almost any site with a video, send the link, and play, pause or skip together while you chat and react next to the video. Whoever sits through an ad catches up afterwards. No account, no premium tier, no ads, no tracking. MIT licensed, with a sync server you can host yourself.
