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.

This is really cool! I've tried it now, and I think the saved generator is unlisted by default? If so, I could utilize this feature when working on my generator updates (especially my Generator Manager) so I don't have to dump the generator codes to a text file every time!
That "saved" interface reminds me of the times when the connection was not good that Perchance was only showing the "save" and "account" buttons, and the save button would still work just like normal.
Are you planning on signing out every time you want to work on a version? And making a new version?
What I do while working on a new version is, I work on a private/unlisted copy of the generator. I find that a lot easier. And I can reuse it too. That other copy becomes the backup of the code. And I copy the code across to the public "real" version when I'm ready for the world to see. Just a thought.

No, I would instead create a whole separate browser profile, so I don't have to log out every single time on my primary browser profile.

Hmm... I could do that, however I've had a fear that the supposedly private generator would go out in the generators page immediately before I quickly set it to private, and that someone would be able to click the link through that page, so I thought creating a separate generator and saving it while not logging in would be a better option, since Perchance will un-list them right after, albeit still being publicly accessible. I know that this phenomenon is very unlikely to happen, but I'm just afraid that it would happen at all.
So to avoid the potential of someone going to the generators page in the 5 second window in which it's public--the first and only time it ever will be--you'd make an entire new email address, and perchance account, and set that up in your browser so you can have both accounts open at once? You do you, but man that seems like a lot of work to avoid that very slim chance 😅

I might haven't good enough at describing it - basically I'll just stay logged out of Perchance entirely for that profile, and not creating an entirely new account, and I might also save the password and the generator link in my massive notes text file in case I lost it. In that case though, I think the private window could be a good alternative besides using a separate browser profile.
