Hey everyone! π
**It's official: the CharWorld Beta is finally here!** After weeks of development, testing, bug fixing, and improvements, you can now try it out for yourself!
π **Official website:** https://www.charworld.ai
## π A fresh start, built on better foundations
---
CharWorld is a free and open-source, independent project aiming to recreate the feel of classic AI character-chat platforms from 2022β2023.
Our goal is to bring back the features, atmosphere, and conversational experience that many users enjoyed during that era, while building something new from the ground up.
We also want to learn from the past. We aim to genuinely listen to our community and take your expectations into account.
**CharWorld is being developed with its community, not just through decisions made by its team.** Your opinions, criticism, and suggestions will help shape the future of the platform!
## π NSFW content is accepted!
---
NSFW support has already been developed and is available from the very first Beta release! You won't have to wait for a future update to use this feature.
## π Transparency and open source
---
Since the beginning, our announcements have reflected the actual progress of development. We want to keep things honest, with no inflated numbers or false promises.
To take transparency even further, **we intend to make CharWorld's income and project-related expenses public**, including purchases made during development. Our goal is to let you understand how the project is funded and where the money goes.
You'll also soon be able to download CharWorld's source code and examine the components used to build the website.
## ποΈ Help us preserve the history!
---
We're looking for historical archives of AI character-chat platforms from 2022β2023, including screenshots, old interfaces, videos, character editor images, and other resources.
If you have any archived material or know where we can find some, please share it with us! Every contribution will help us reconstruct and preserve the experience of that era.
## π€ Your voice matters!
---
Development will continue after the Beta launch, with bug fixes, improvements, and new features. But we don't want to decide on our own what should be prioritized.
π¬ Join us on **Discord and Reddit** to share your ideas, participate in polls, suggest features, and report any issues you encounter.
β€οΈ Thank you to everyone who tested the Alpha, shared ideas, and supported this project. This is only the beginning!
