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.

Thank you very much. 🫠
I have a question, can I import the text file even if it is hosted outside perchance, for example I would want to import it from GitHub, would it be possible?
No, it must be user-uploads.perchance.org URL. I don't like seeing generators break, due to people using random file hosts that later shut down (or worse, using random links to e.g. pinterest images, fandom/wiki images, etc. which are often only temporary CDN urls), so my plugins in the future will require using perchance URL uploads in most cases.
and then when the apocalypse happens and the world needs to restart, all important info of the world will have been saved on the perchance server and it will be easy.
BROO 💀
No, that'd be impractical, unless the server is stored somewhere on space and there was a technology that makes the server accessible from the ground, without any sort of latency or slow connection. But I guess the reason is that the perchance upload server would be guaranteed to be maintained forever so it's very, very unlikely that a file would randomly disappear from the server.
