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

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.)

Cool cool. Do you have any sort of testing set up for perchance? Could be useful for making sure things like this don't break capabilities.

Oh I see. I'll keep these things in mind for people that ask.

Ah, got it. So there's a fix in place, that will slowly roll itself out to each server over time? Cool, will paste links here if/when I find them.

Ah great! Those were both pet peeves of mine, but I thought they're probably way too deeply embedded to change at this point. Thanks for this! I'll let you know if I find any new bugs from it. 👍

Perchance is built on JS. Code blocks are [JavaScript expressions]. Functions just have fn() => JavaScript code in them. Plus, you could just put a script tag in the HTML of the page and put JS direct in there if you wanted to. So yeah, you can do loops as usual. 👍

This also means you can call something like the image generator with just a simple js object, normal strings, and so on. Which can make things a lot easier and encapsulated.

Personally, I'd write the image function as not changing values, and just creating the needed HTML and returning that. But you can do things however you want to.

I'm not sure I fully understood, but I got the jist ;p

To generate a random value from a list, access it with .selectOne to get a random item, or .evaluateItem to get a finalised string value. And store that in a variable. So like row_animal = animals.evaluateItem. Then use that in the prompt you send to the image generator function. If you want that to change between rows, after a row ends just run that code again to grab a new random item.

I don't see the code blending_value = [blending_values.selectAll[counter]] in there at all.

next_matrix_image() is very hard to read... you can use if and else statements so it's easier to understand (and code, I'd say).

...None of which really matters to your question. I'm just finding it very difficult to even understand what your code is doing or trying to do. 🫠

Is the problem that it changes animal? Looks to me like it's not changing animal. It always renders horses for me. Is that what you wanted, or didn't want? What do you actually want to happen? I'm so confused... 😅

If you added it to a gallery, then likely the title has the style listed in it on the gallery.

I don't know much about the glitch service or how it works with perchance generators. But what are you trying to do with it? Are you using instructions someone has written or something?
