I cannot find a place to chat instantly anytime in UK. Is there anything like this? There are chats in other countries, but again UK lacks.

    None of the above are chat rooms in the old sense of the word and I mean old. IRC type chat rooms largely died out years ago.

    I'm sure there are a still some hardcore niche users somewhere but I doubt any of them would be any use to the OP.

    They were low tech, low bandwidth and non graphical, a necessity on slow dial-up internet connections.

    We have moved on to forums like this and social media apps you listed which is at it should be.

    P.S. I wanted to use the more correct plural fora but forums looks better. :o

    OP try chat roulette.

    Actually as I just remembered you were the person that looked down your nose at single women with children, you're best of going to the pub as per another poster said.

    They asked for 'chat instantly' which is exactly what chat rooms are. What do you think they meant?

    The OP already knows what do, hence him being rude to women in Essex as per one of his other threads.
