Can someone get you IP address or hack you through just chatting? (alien.top)

Was in Reddit chat one to one yesterday and also another site but not sure if I can name it without getting banned. Anyway my phone has been disconnecting and I am not being able to sign into WiFi. Keep gettting error message saying ' Connected to device, cannot provide internet'. It most likely is not a hacker or someone trying to get my IP address but just wondered how easy it was?

Yes, when talking to you they will have another tab open to Hacker Typer where they will be furiously hacking your mainframe. /s

u/ElevenNotes has given you a suitably proper answer, I'm just here for the fun.
