After a few remote happy hours due to shelter-in-place orders I was tired of talking over people and wanted a way to get closer to the small groups you’d experience in a real party.
Zoom has breakout rooms but it's definitely more aimed toward the enterprise, and if there are security concerns it can be nice to have an alternative that doesn't require installation or advanced permissions.
Mixaba is a small project that I proof-of-concepted that first weekend of our local shelter-in-place orders. In the last couple weeks I've been refining the product and we've been using it at work for happy hours and lunches, and even family Easter get togethers. It's currently only on the web and has support across Chrome, Firefox, Safari and Edge. Phone support is experimental but it works pretty well on both iOS and Android. I'd love to see it turn into a mobile app as well for even better support.
It's free and there's no account needed to join a party, no desktop app download, and no 50 person limit – enjoy!
