Perchance - Create a Random Text Generator

⚄︎ Perchance

This is a Lemmy Community for perchance.org, a platform for sharing and creating random text generators.

Feel free to ask for help, share your generators, and start friendly discussions at your leisure :)

This community is mainly for discussions between those who are building generators. For discussions about using generators, especially the popular AI ones, the community-led Casual Perchance forum is likely a more appropriate venue.

See this post for the Complete Guide to Posting Here on the Community!

Rules

1. Please follow the Lemmy.World instance rules.

2. Be kind and friendly.

  • Please be kind to others on this community (and also in general), and remember that for many people Perchance is their first experience with coding. We have members for whom English is not their first language, so please be take that into account too :)

3. Be thankful to those who try to help you.

  • If you ask a question and someone has made a effort to help you out, please remember to be thankful! Even if they don't manage to help you solve your problem - remember that they're spending time out of their day to try to help a stranger :)

4. Only post about stuff related to perchance.

  • Please only post about perchance related stuff like generators on it, bugs, and the site.

5. Refrain from requesting Prompts for the AI Tools.

  • We would like to ask to refrain from posting here needing help specifically with prompting/achieving certain results with the AI plugins (text-to-image-plugin and ai-text-plugin) e.g. "What is the good prompt for X?", "How to achieve X with Y generator?"
  • See Perchance AI FAQ for FAQ about the AI tools.
  • You can ask for help with prompting at the 'sister' community Casual Perchance, which is for more casual discussions.
  • We will still be helping/answering questions about the plugins as long as it is related to building generators with them.

6. Search through the Community Before Posting.

  • Please Search through the Community Posts here (and on Reddit) before posting to see if what you will post has similar post/already been posted.

I'm about to give up... [flagging problem] (lemmy.world)

EDIT 08-nov-2026 — THANK YOU STAFF for implementing an info text pointing out the problems on the site! This is extremely helpful, and I will soon review the problematic points and ask for a review!

Original post — @perchance@lemmy.world

"If you think the review is wrong, please post on the forum..." ...where your post will be just ignored, not even to say "we're busy, we can review your site next month".

Please don't take me wrong, I do know that the 'staff' is probably a one-man staff who's already too busy setting up and maintaining the entire Perchance universe, and I can only be grateful for that. But enforcing such an over-strict flagging system that moreover doesn't give the faintest hint at what's wrong with the site probaby wasn't the best move, considering the lack of human resources.

I currently have one PG-13 stories site flagged as mature, and there's an extensive explanation why I feel the flag is unjust; and then I have a NSFW stories site completely blocked for reasons I do not know, and I've asked on the forum to unblock, to no avail.

It's sad, because I love the Perchance community, and I'm grateful for the powerful framework Perchance offers us for free, and I wanted to give something in return. I'm good at writing stories, and just wanted to offer them to the community, because I'm not the kind of person who feels comfortable at taking and taking without ever giving back anything.

Thank you anyway to the Perchance staff for the effort, the energy and the resources they put in this project. I truly appreciate it.

RudBo, I'm sorry I mentioned AI Furry Generator, but that is the site, it does wonders with the code, has tons of options, messages, warnings, and it takes the greatest care at keeping the site suitable for anyone: I think that nothing can be done more than that. But I've been asked to do much more than that, and it feels unfair to me. Am I forgiven? 🥺
