make <name> opens a room of your own.
A real one, running on example rooms. Nothing you type here is saved or sent anywhere.
The text in front of your cursor is your name, the room, and what you are reading. Nothing else on the screen has to spend itself saying that, which is most of why this fits on a phone.

what you cooked
No account to look around, and no wall in front of the good part. The first time you say something you are asked what to call you, and that is the whole of signing up.

your sentence is held — you will not type it twice.
Send somebody a room, or one conversation inside it, and the preview is that conversation — drawn by the site out of the same lines you would have read on the screen. The picture below is not a mock-up of one. It is the live card for the music room, made when this page loaded.
