Rabb.it died today. :(

Two months after a former executive revealed that Rabbit had gone bankrupt, they suddenly died and were replaced with Kast.

[Satsuki]

Wait, what? What's Rabbit?

Never heard of it until now. What is it about?

At first I thought this was a bot. But I doubt an ADMIN is a bot.

Rabbit was a site where you could virtually watch things online with other people. You'd basically make a "room", put in a link or find the vid you're looking for on Netflix/Hulu/YouTube/etc, and anyone that you invited into your "room" would see what you were seeing, watching at the same time. Plus there was a comments section to chat while you watched. Personally used it countless times for watching things with friends here and elsewhere and introducing each other to stuff.

Is a shame that Rabbit closed. I'll look at this site and a couple others I've heard of; hopefully this new version will be an adequate replacement.

So basically it's like Ultraviolet done and done.

Noooooooooooooooooo!

In the short term I'm going to give Kast a try.

Hopefully a real replacement will come along someday.

Lol, I thought it was Rabbit the musician, and I was genuinely confused to see that Apforums, knew about him and cared enough to post.

Anyway, never heard of the platform before.

So no biggie on my end.

It's essentially been replaced by Discord at this point anyway.

The major benefit of Rabbit over other streaming services was that even people with a poor connection could use it.
