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.

That's what's not being answered: WHY was it changed?
Did they get spooked at what people were generating?
I think what should happen is that they continue to offer all of the previous versions as well as the new, that some people like.
I just think it's awful. I know I'm not the only one who loves to generate AI girl art - there are several perchance pages on it.
But the results now are just awful: they don't seem like the machine has actually had a hand in generating art, just a stock of photos. Grimy, distorted if you ask for certain preferances like curvyness, bland. Either just dull and grimy or high contrast stereotypical beauty: cheekbones, lips, freckles, curly fine hair, jewel like eyes. So narrow and dull. Frankenstein stuck together images. Before it seemed like the machine was actually rendering real art based on the prompt.
I don't think there is a problem in calling out something that is free as having faults. Why is a free service sacred? Sure whoever makes it wants to know that people enjoy it, find it useful and want to take on feedback.
I just really enjoyed creating girl art I found it really meditative and absorbing, a form of delightful escape. Here are some more I used to be able to create. They've been up on Instagram for half a year and no complaints, some likes - an audience of nearly 4K followers:
