How to masturbate together online

There are a number of threads seeking out who is currently masturbating. If you want to do it together with someone how does that work? Do you pm them and then do a typed chat while stroking your cock or rubbing your clit? Seems like typing while stroking is a bit awkward but maybe I’m wrong. Is there a way to add audio so you can say what you are doing rather than typing? Video? As I mentioned in one of my only other posts I have an FWB and we video while stroking/rubbing, which is a huge turn on. What are folks here doing?
When I first got online I met a girl through an online game. We struck up a PM friendship that became a cyber affair. She was far more sophisticated in regards to cyber sex. She turned me on to mutual mastubating. We have been out of touch for at least twenty years. I never got a chance to thank her.
 
Just knowing she is engaged and enthusiastic works for me. Sometimes I tell a story and she does most of the playing. Sometimes she relates an experience or fantasy and I pleasure myself and chime in less. Sometimes it carries over to an email exchange where we can be more creative and elaborate, Where there's a will, there's a way. Be creative and open.
 
I haven't found anything that works even remotely well on phone. Some claim to have supporting apps, but they either don't work or have extremely limited functionality. If you know of anything good for phone, please share :)

I've played quite a few different sex games over the years. For multiplayer interactions, a few of them stand out:
1) Yareel, free, browser based, fairly simple. Bad graphics and limited interaction possibilities - but can be ok to try out the genre
2) IMVU, can easily be enjoyed for free, requires a small download and install. Graphics are not great. Tons of options for interaction - much of it player generated.
3) Achat, requires payment or good friends to enjoy in the long term, requires a larger download and install to windows PC. Graphics are amazing and the interaction is very very good. There is a 3-day free trial that can provide a fun weekend if not more.
Have you tried Second Life? It's been years since I played that, but it was very good.
 
I did. I found the learning curve to be too steep for what it was. I got the impression that it suffers a bit from not being built with a focus on sex
There are different areas that you can go for a deeper sexual experience. But I see your point. Yes, it is very complex and there is some investment you have to put in the make it worth your while, both time and money.
 
Do any of these apps carry a risk of allowing malware to be planted? Or there's a risk that someone could steal your PID? Either by hacking the app, or planting a keylogger (back to malware).
trillian
whatsapp
telegram
skype
kik

I'm paranoid, but not deeply tech savvy. I've ended pm conversations that went too quickly to "what's your trillian?" but maybe I'm being too cautious.

I'm not as worried about scammers.

The bad actors in the world of hacking range from amateurs to PhD’s. They actually operate like small companies. The experts will say that there’s no such thing as a totally safe app.

That said, the size/strength of the company behind the app is one indicator of how much they’ve spent on cyber security. So:
WhatsApp is owned by Meta (big).
Telegram was founded by a Russian billionaire (says something to me…).
Skype is gone, replaced by Teams from Microsoft (big)
Trillion (owned by some VC guys);
Kik nearly shut down once and the current owners probably bought it at a deep discount.

I used to use Skype, then switched to WhatsApp. Teams can be considered safe also, but I use it for work, so don’t want to accidentally get a user ID crossed over or something.

You say you’re not worried about scammers, but social engineering is the bigger threat in this case.

This was exactly the sort of info I was hoping for, and probably others will benefit as well. So much thanks!

If you don't mind, tell me more about what you mean by social engineering. I am not unfamiliar, but I'm sure I have some gaps in my knowledge.

Oh gosh… I’ll try to give an oversimplified example:

a sweet woman (or man) that you meet here on Lit is really nice and you have a great time PM’ing with them. You eventually graduate to emailing one another, exchanging erotic pictures, audios and and so on. One of the images you open or even save on your computer has malware hidden in it… and now your device is hacked, which might include keystroke logging, which, if you do your banking on your home computer can be trouble. Apple devices are quite a bit harder to hack (but not impossible).

Or, the online friend gains your trust over the course of time (I’m talking months and months), and convinces you to send them $100 for “x”, which becomes $1000 the next time and so on. Believe it or not, trusting and unsuspecting people have actually handed out their banking information in these situations.

There are countless versions of all of this…

So be careful, use complex passwords and don’t use the same password for everything. I use a free password locker to keep track of mine. Yes, that could be hacked too, so enable “two factor” or “multi factor” login authentication with anything that offers it. That’s where they send you a code via text (or email) before you can log in to something.

the photo thing does scare me a little, because exchanging photos is a common thing.

I have a mac, and also use an antivirus program. I doubt a vpn would help with that issue, but I have one and use it about 50% of the time.

If I suspect a keylogger, then what? Reinstall the operating system?

This one I am less worried about. I also know people and heard stories of people who were tricked. I pretty much cut everything off cold if money comes up. I met a woman from Belarus on plenty of fish a few years ago. She had beautiful pictures, claimed to be a concert pianist, but was struggling. She was planning to come to the city I was living near to be a nanny. First, warning sign, the long emails did not seem in synch with my emails. Second, sure enough, she was on the way to the airport and her car broke down, and she needed $400. Full stop, end of connection.

I also stumbled across a facebook profile, that wasn't me, but was using my pictures to create a fictional facebook page. The name was a misspelling of my name. I contacted facebook and they took it down. I believe now that it was being used by a scammer, probably "yahoo boys" from Nigeria, to backstop a scam being run on a dating website.

Yes. I do this, but could change my passwords more often. Also use a password app. Have the 2 factor on some things, but could increase it.

Thanks for indulging me with this information. I realize it's going off on a tangent from the thread topic, so I will thank the thread followers for their patience.

All of them do, but, doing so would call for either state-level resources and expertise (think Mossad or CIA) or else some sufficiently motivated organized criminals.

Look at it this way:

Only you can assess whether they could earn enough of a payoff for someone to decide to do this to you.

Do you possess state secrets or trade gold/crypto/other significant financial assets using these platforms? You said you aren't worried about scammers.

Whether scammed, hacked, hijacked, or phished, what do you realistically think the consequences of it happening would be? Are you a good target for any of it, based on your exploitability as a person? Would an attacker single you out, based on your portfolio or security clearance?

Great feedback. I'm just a paranoid motherfucker.

Definitely no secrets. I had a clearance over a decade ago, probably most of the stuff not classified anymore, nothing left the building anyway, or even the vault inside the secure building, my cell phone was left in my car every day, I've changed computers several times since then, and... my memory sucks.

My liquid assets aren't going to blow anyone's mind, but it would be a bummer to lose a big chunk of them.
