⚄︎ 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.

Instead of the url. There's a lot of dfg7dfg97dfg "names" of links on that page, which is pretty useless.

On the $meta front, it seems when a copy of a generator is made it has the same $meta.title, .description, etc. Which I guess is the most straightforward way. Would be cool if the description was edited with (copy of perchance.org/...) at the start, something like that? As a small way to credit who originally made it, but more usefully so people know who are browsing the generators page that it could well just be someone messing about with changing/adding things to try it out, and not a real "full" generator that's been made with care and ready for release. (In lieu of "private" not being the default.)

Cool... Yeah, I was just wondering if there are other apis we could make use of. I think the image generator uses /api/generator for example.

How was this one discovered? Or was it simply used in the original generator list and you found it in the source?

It's was just found on the source. The AI apis are not so public, you have to use the plugin directly.
