Hey, we've seen this a request a few times. I'm curious, why would you want to use itch.io for chatting over all the other stuff that exists. Do you want to chat with people you already know, or are you interested in using it to meet new people to talk with? If you want to talk to people you don't know, are you looking to talk with other players of games, or talk with the developers? Thanks
I recently was wondering about this, and I think it would just be cool to meet and friend others with the similar interests when it comes to games :]
Basically like the way Steam has a friend system, but minus the part where steam friending has other benefits like doing games multiplayer or seeing what game the friend is currently playing
