Not on the table
Sign-up & accounts
The whole point is to talk without an identity. No email, no password, no profile to maintain.
Public profiles
No avatars, bios, or follower counts. Each conversation stands alone and then disappears.
Gender & country filters
Filtering strangers by who they are turns a calm chat into a sorting machine, and invites the worst use cases.
Paywalls
Koguko is free. We won't gate the core experience or sell a premium queue.
