Agreed about ethics. I recently came to the same conclusions

Mini-Chat has decent string sanitization now, thanks to those who helped with testing (https://alpxtest.pages.dev if you are curious). It's pretty much ready for integration (just couple of minor changes are needed), I'll return to work on my main website soon.

It's just a tiny project but I'm really proud of it. Once completed, I will integrate it into my main website

Cool! I've made the same thing for my website. What's the backend stack?

I'll do some testing for the most common vulnerabilities I can think of

I think you should wrap the comments into an element and apply overflow:hidden to them to prevent the contents from obscuring other comments as I did in one of my tests

An apostrophe gets turned into an asterisk. Probably not desireable.

Sorry for this spam but I assume if it's for testing I'm welcome to test!

It's okay, thanks for feedback. Current XSS protection is really primitive, that's why characters like "&,<,>" turn to *, that's temporary. Backend is pretty simple actually, it's just basic KV storage getting data from POST requests and sends them to the client with GET requests, i could've used a different database structure, but this is more than enough considering the required complexity.
