⚄︎ 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.

The full rules are posted here: (https://legal.lemmy.world/)
User Rules: (https://legal.lemmy.world/fair-use/)

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.

[plugin] The favicon-plugin allows you to change the browser tab icon from the default perchance dice logo to a custom image (even live-updated/animated, or using outputs of text-to-image plugin, etc) (perchance.org)

Could we maybe have fewer of these stickied posts on here? Scrolling past 4 of these gigantic posts every time just to see what's actually newly posted on here is kinda tiresome. Maybe have a time limit on how long they are stickied at least?

I don't know for sure, but my guess is people who use this forum are passionate about Perchance on a deeper level and want to stay up-to-date, so probably check here fairly often. So just posting normally should be noticed by most people anyway. Or stickying for just a day or two should let most people find that post. And only if it's some larger change maybe?

You're in charge of course. Just putting it out there.

(Also if there's some way of making Lemmy not make link posts HUUUUUUUUGE that'd be great.)

Yep, fair point. Done. I didn't sticky this btw - I'm not sure if I've ever stickied a post on here.

[–] wthit56 1 points 2 days ago

Oh interesting. Maybe they use a different term, or auto-sticky anything from a particular user, or something. Weird...

Cool cool… I guess this could be built in to $meta as a property with a setter? 🤔

please ensure thiis is done with care, as i have been informed that malware can be embedded within favicons

i have been informed that malware can be embedded within favicons

You have unfortunately been misinformed on this matter. From the perspective of web browsers, favicons are just images, and will never be executed as code. You might be thinking of web-application-specific exploits - e.g. related to vulnerable WordPress favicon plugins or something. This is not at all relevant to Perchance. Using this plugin is completely safe.

That said, I appreciate the concern!
