Losing Perchance would be a nightmare for me. I love my t2i page and the people who frequent it. My friend Quinerous and I have put a lot of work into it. It would be an absolute shame for the dev to feel like they are unappreciated and give up.

@perchance@lemmy.world This may be important.

Have fun funding it and then dealing with people who don't like the decisions you make regarding your generator that you built and funded with your own hard earned money. Buh-bye now! 😘

Questions aren't stupid. Blindly throwing a tantrum because you don't get your way is (not you). The problem is that the angry voices tend to be the loudest. People rarely provide positive and uplifting feedback. They believe that if things are going well there is no reason to say a word. Anyway just something to think about.

I believe @Randomize@lemmy.world is saying the same thing you are...only a bit more passionately 😁

The chat on my page isn't very busy, but even with a slow chat I don't always catch everything that happens there. I can't be online 24/7 to monitor it. This is a hobby, not my job. You also have to remember that "minor" means different things in different countries and there is no real age verification here. The "minor" you are referring to could very well have been an adult trolling or even law enforcement trying to attract a predator.

Oh, I forgot to ask....how do you feel about sporks? 🤔

Your missing the point. It doesn't matter what users want. If the dev wants to upgrade to a new model it's their decision. Unless you own or otherwise have some stake (and thus a vote) in this business, then you (and I) have no say in what they do. What is more helpful is providing good feedback (bugs, quirks, failures) that can be used to make decisions. If you want to help the dev make things better you do so with constructive feedback that informs rather than blames or cajoles. Those who want a vote in how their preferred image or text ai works should either use a paid service that allows users to have a say, or create/download and train your own.

I'm sorry that you seem to not like me or my opinions. This is not the first time you have commented on one of my posts. In fact from some of your posts you seem to have a problem with most of the Perchance community. I was genuinely trying to be helpful by pointing that the dev had recently provided an update about the exact issue the OP was asking about. I'm sorry my language wasn't sensitive to the fact that someone other than the OP might be offended by my post. Please feel free to completely ignore any future post I make and save your energy for something more productive. Like asking "Real Questions". Are you implying that all of the other questions from the community are somehow not real? This is the kind of thing you do...by pointing how a post may be offensive you try to get others to see it that way. Leave me out of your little crusade. And water is wet by the way. 👍

Thanks! I understand the sharing and duplicating if they plan on actually changing things. Most of the duplicates I've seen are exactly the same and just a way to have their own copy. If they left it private I wouldn't care, but they leave my banner and all of the meta info the same so it shows up on searches like it's the original. I'm pretty sure some people I've banned for inappropriate content have done this as well. I have a notice asking people to ask permission before copying so I can share those concerns, but so far not a single.person has asked. Guess I may be expecting too much lol.

Well said! Hugs RudBo , then runs before getting growled at!

The developer just posted a long post about ongoing updates.

Switched browsers just to see. Getting a Blocked Response error when trying to save 🙁

It's the only list doing that out of all the lists I use. It may be an issue with my phone or browser...but why only that one list? Others are at least the same size or bigger. It's just weird. Thanks for the advice though.

Why do you say that? It's a forum for Perchance so how could you think it was about anything else.

😱

I love this idea.

I love how this turned into a discussion of the merits of lemmy over reddit and not about the actual people in this community lol

In regards to Perchance they don't. It's a privately owned website. The owner can close it any time. Context matters.

All of it is out of date. Perchance switched to Flux awhile ago. There has been multiple posts about the switch and the dev had a a message they put when they switched.
