+✨ CORE FEATURES
+No account required. No tracking. Just create a room, invite your friends, and start watching together.

- • Smart Binge-Watching (Auto-Sync): When a new episode loads, KoalaSync automatically pauses playback in a smart lobby until everyone's video is ready. No spoilers, no one left behind.
- • Fully Localized: Enjoy a native experience with a user interface fully translated into 13 different languages.
- • One-Click Invitations: Generate a smart invite link. Once clicked, the extension instantly configures room credentials and server settings for your guests.

+• No Account Needed: Create a room and share the invite link. No emails, no passwords, no sign-ups. Pick a nickname or let KoalaSync generate one for you.

+• Smart Binge-Watching: When a new episode loads, KoalaSync automatically pauses the lobby until everyone is ready. No spoilers, no one left behind.

-🛡️ UNCOMPROMISING PRIVACY & SECURITY 
 
- No data collection. No compromises.
- • 100% Anonymous: Zero tracking, zero analytics, zero telemetry.
- • Ready Out-Of-The-Box: No technical knowledge needed. Install and start watching immediately using the official public server.
- • RAM-Only Public Server: The official relay server operates entirely in volatile RAM. No databases, no logs, no watch history — nothing persists. It also features built-in rate-limiting and brute-force protection to prevent room-id spamming.
- • Self-Hostable: Take total control by deploying a private relay server in seconds via Docker. Optional, never required.
 
-🚀 HOW IT WORKS 
+🛡️ PRIVACY & SECURITY
+KoalaSync is built for private watch parties without unnecessary data collection.
 
- 1. Install KoalaSync and click "Create Room" to spin up a secure lobby.
- 2. Copy the invite link and send it to your friends.
- 3. Open your favorite streaming site and set the video tab as the active target.
- 4. Press play — everyone stays perfectly in sync.
+• No Tracking: Zero analytics, zero telemetry, and absolutely no behavior profiling.
+• Anonymous by Design: No accounts needed. Rooms can be joined with a simple nickname.
+• Ready Out of the Box: Install KoalaSync and start watching immediately using the official public relay server. No technical setup required.
+• RAM-Only Public Server: The official relay server operates entirely in volatile RAM. No databases, no stored watch history, no persistent room data. Room data exists only temporarily and disappears when the room closes.
+• Self-Hostable: Want full control? You can run your own private KoalaSync relay server via Docker in seconds. Self-hosting is optional and never required.

- KoalaSync was built by a solo developer who needed a fast, secure way to watch movies with friends — and builds tools worth using. The code is fully transparent under the MIT license: audit it, fork it, improve it. Found a bug or have a feature idea? Open an issue on GitHub. Contributions and code reviews are always welcome.

+⚙️ UNDER THE HOOD
+KoalaSync is lightweight, transparent, and built with privacy in mind.
+
+• Real-Time Relay: Playback state is synchronized through a custom WebSocket-based relay server for fast room updates.
+• No Media Streaming: KoalaSync does not stream, proxy, upload, download, or redistribute any video content. Everyone watches from their own browser on the original website.
+• Temporary Room State Only: The relay server only coordinates room state such as play, pause, seek position, active target, nickname, and readiness status.
+• Docker Self-Hosting: The relay server can be self-hosted with Docker if you prefer to run your own private instance.
+• Open Architecture: The project is designed to be inspectable, forkable, and easy to review.
