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.

Yeah imo images have been pretty bad and out of date for like 1.5+ years now :') Everyone please leave perchance - it's embarrassing for me at this point.

Still working on getting the new model cheap enough to be free+unlimited, which I already knew would be the hard part, but it's still harder than I expected. The model is 10x larger, so need literally an order of magnitude of optimizations. If everything goes right (which it won't), the upgrade is a few weeks away(tm). Then text model upgrade.

Also, apologies @[email protected] and anyone else who had/has their gen incorrectly marked with "Content Warning" / age verification checkbox. Still lots of false positives due to ai based detection and bugs. For now, you might be able to move lists/things that are triggering false positives to another generator and import them. This stuff is needed due to ad network requirements. Mo website traffic, mo problems.

"Everyone please leave perchance - it’s embarrassing for me at this point."

won't feel that way when you are proud of it, and imo the 2 ai being so out of date is the only thing noticeably detracting from Perchance. So, theoretically, 2 hurdles to overcome and, afterward, it's something to 100% be proud of (and ppl making stuff with your stuff can be proud of their stuff).

and i think ppl will adapt to the stricter content moderation tho it hurts now cuz preexisting stuff has to be edited to comply.

Ngl we have NSFW content. Which is loosely restricted and forbidden as they are designed to be

I think the problem is we cannot make a customized one - or we could?

Sometimes it overlapped with our existing own version in new copies?!?

One of the problem of being a gen owner is that despite there are already many guides and instructions, still gonna test and find out where all those settings are.

The furry model is struggling behind.

allo, beautiful people Gen is one of a kind when it comes to the art generators currently available on Perchance. The only other one I’d put on the same level of excellence is Fusion AI, but Adcom has sort of stepped back from it. Even if the images are a bit small and the model is a little old, you can still have a good time. I hope you don’t step away from it. By the way, check out StarlitSky — I've been secretly posting my images there for a few weeks now.

idk you and rudbo also have great gens :)

The problem is when making images like this for a week, it becomes rlly hard to justify generating with perchance again. You know on perchance that artsy little waterfall on the left wouldn't be a thing. I love artsy touches like that. I bet tons of ppl get pulled away from perchance like this. ai art is just a little part of Perchance tho so I'm just focusing elsewhere until update. :)

Glad u and rudbo are still going strong on teh art. Don't fall in to the trap I and probably adcom did of using modern ai art gen.

will be nice when perchance is cutting edge and people are graduating in to perchance from other art gens instead of graduating out of perchance due to a low ceiling; should make a world of difference.

After making supreme furry arts(in my own eyes) and found nobody gives a **** and they gradually turning forums into p*** spamming board somewhere else. I know shallow quality isn't everything. Sure I love **** and high quality. But it's the community make it shines. People always diss the Perchance mob but it's much thriving than some R***** or D****** , it just need a little guide and push. Yeah I praise the community and public gallery (also the ability to make %$#@ that's why I am here first). But the point is I enjoy something more than quality. But I'm looking forward to the update with excitement :cat_yipee:
