⚄︎ 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 know there are a few people here who enjoy archiving - e.g. https://perchance.org/vionet20-abulafia-conversions

So I figured I'd mention this which I just stumbled across - from this post:

https://www.stevensavage.com/blog/2023/09/seventh-sanctum-next.html

I’m going to start making my generator notes and data available to you. The data is pretty easy to just bundle up, but I also want to make some notes on how to use it. I’ll make this very visible on the site so you can just download it and go do your own thing.

Replicate my generators. Enhance them. Build your own. Learn from them. Whatever works for you.

I know I can’t maintain the site forever – if nothing else, I won’t be around forever.

Perchance, on the other hand is going to be around until the heat death of the universe, so if anyone wants to help Steven preserve his work via Perchance versions of his gens, here's the data:

If you work out the conversion rules, I or someone else can write the JavaScript code for a mostly-automated converter.

Some update to this:

  • I've updated converter URL: to /seventh-sanctum-converter.
  • The // SEED based conversion seems to be working, though there are manual checks to make sure the generators are working properly.
  • The Data Archives might not be updated, though some of the gens in the Data Archives are no longer available in the site as well.
  • I've compiled my conversions at /7th-sanctum-conversions-vionet20.
