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.

- 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.

well thank you for reaffirming in strongly emotional words why i made a place where prompts could be discussed and I have felt for some time trying to use it that it was too hard to get to and find. the sidebar here says no discussing prompts but yes, gives no avenue to where to do so. So, tho I feel the rage burns bridges, I as an avid image maker ran in to this same thing and is why edward, i, and others created that other forum so there could be a place to discuss prompts at all. Consider it as having been worse. But I would have and should have just straightforwardly kindly asked perchance to add the link to CasualPerchance Forum on the sidebar right where it says no discussion of prompts here. Anyway, this isn't a moneymaking business venture with a big team behind it. More like Perchance made Perchance, continues making Perchance, and there are a bunch of community people who like perchance, do what they can to improve it, but often can't; and in those situations, a friendly asking for something and suggestion on the forum goes all the way across the river while the burned bridge may not. Tho painfully your emotion may have helped show Casual Perchance Forum is too inaccessible to solve the annoyance factor it was built to solve and that factor still exists.
nice change on the side panel thank you, tho my personal opinion is I think it should be this:
"For a more casual discussion and where you would ask about ai imaging and ai prompts, see Casual Perchance"
Since, tho it is a place for casual discussion, the main thing that it is 'fixing' is that people come here having used the ai images (not even ai text as much but specifically ai images) needing an outlet for their promptrelated questions. So, tho nicely more accessible, I think it would need to be something like the above to actually, and I believe this is the goal:
have someone come to the forum for the first time, have an image generator related question, glance at the side panel and immediately see they are supposed to ask it in another section, and go there and ask it WITHOUT HAVING ASKED IT HERE. Right where it mentions Casual Perchance, without having to click in to further menus, a mention that that is where to ask about prompts.
edit: also the link doesn't work >.>
Should be fixed now. I always mistype it from casual -> causal xd
