Perchance - Create a Random Text Generator
โ๏ธ 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.
See this post for the Complete Guide to Posting Here on the Community!

3. Be thankful to those who try to help you.
- If you ask a question and someone has made a effort to help you out, please remember to be thankful! Even if they don't manage to help you solve your problem - remember that they're spending time out of their day to try to help a stranger :)

- Please only post about perchance related stuff like generators on it, bugs, and the site.
5. Refrain from requesting Prompts for the AI Tools.
- We would like to ask to refrain from posting here needing help specifically with prompting/achieving certain results with the AI plugins (
text-to-image-pluginandai-text-plugin) e.g. "What is the good prompt for X?", "How to achieve X with Y generator?" - See Perchance AI FAQ for FAQ about the AI tools.
- 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.

By the way, if anyone knowledgeable wants to look it over and suggest something should be included or clarified, I'm all ears ๐
Dont have time atm to go further and on Comments currently but here's this
also i would detail more the three different Quote options
I've tweaked the styles for the code labels above the code examples by the way. Hopefully it will look/behave better on your device now.
Ooh, scrummy feedback! Cheers!
Thanks for those ๐
Regarding the grammar points, I'm a writer, so I get what you mean. But in the more casual style which I prefer, when incomplete sentences are really continuances from the previous sentence are actually okay. It really matches how we speak every day. We don't talk thinking about sentences and punctuation; it's more like one huge run-on sentence. This is how it looks in text.
I don't write everything like that obviously, but that's where such constructions come from, and why they exist in fiction and other less formal text. In my documentation (here and elsewhere) I'm not going for a formal style, but a more casual one. It gives me more leeway to write expressively, while I also make it very clear on the technical side.
If your way of writing is different, that's all fine of course. But that note in particular just isn't what I'm going for. I may or may not change such things, on a case by case basis.
its: in that case it's a possessive "its", which does not have an apostrophe. When the possessor is "it" we just use an "s" without the apostrophe. [article] Only if it's a contraction (as init is๐it's) would it have an apostrophe. ๐also i notice your font isn't Emilys Candy; but that's ok. I forgive you. (just this once)
Had to look that one up--LOL ๐คฃ
