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.

- We would like to ask to refrain from posting here needing help specifically with prompting/achieving certain results with the AI plugins (

- 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.

It's just a temp thing for me; I add "DEV" at the front so I can see at a glance which copy I'm working on. And I still manage it, but I have to use a setTimeout, so... it's not like it really prevents it anyhow. And a regular web page would accept this just fine without such a workaround.
I would think the only time people ever use
document.title
in or out of perchance is to have a dynamic title based on stuff happening on the page--otherwise why script it at all? So it's always done when the coder wants it to be different to the normal title, when they want to override it, ignoring anything else.So... dunno, my take is, it should just work the same as it does anywhere else. It's cool that $meta.title does what it does, but it should be easily overridable I reckon. If nothing else, to keep parity with expectations for web pages in general.
I guess that's kind of my angle on a lot of this stuff, maybe you noticed... coming from a web-dev background and working just in raw html/css/js files for a while, I'm all about keeping it working as close to that as possible and avoid unexpected side-effects or differences. Doesn't mean you have to take that stance, but that's mine anyhow 😁
