Hey, seriously thank you for the contribution and the time you put into this. The modal/navbar additions fit the vibe of the page perfectly and the code was clean and easy to work into the project. I really appreciate you helping improve the site and contributing to the overall experience. Sorry that its taken me as long as it has to respond. i dont check my lemmy often.

I added a thank-you/credit because people like you genuinely help make projects like this better. Much appreciated <3

    used to do this long time back, i keep the images each time that it happens and i see it. i am possibly wrong, i think this is part of the denoise process and its just faults out or something maybe early in the process from a variable of factors and the resulting images are just as far as the process made it along.

    You are awesome Allo. Thank you for being good people. I’m honestly terrible at most of the things I do, but I’ve noticed on one of the AI chat sites I visit from time to time. There’s an event system that focuses mostly on seasonal flavors, major calendar holidays, and similar occasions. Because it’s an AI chat site, users often create characters that connect to the current theme in some way. It seems to be popular, which made me think: maybe a character-creation event could exist on a perpetual rotation. The goal would be to streamline things and keep it simple for whoever has to maintain or update it regularly. I’ve seen that you’re considering a character jam, and what I’m getting at is that this could function similarly. Most of the structure for the event's could be created in advance, making ongoing maintenance easier. This would provide users with a consistent, recurring event and, over time, something they come to expect. That familiarity and simplicity could help reach more people overall.

    Some issues i think are hindering events:

    1, I don’t see them advertised. (it may list the event when on the generators page but perhaps if the events become streamlined and are made to be a reoccurring aspect of the community they could be set to show at the top of the page like in the photo i have attached)

    2, They’re hosted off-site. (i think this is a small thing, but for example with your image contest. i think if users didn't have to leave the site and go to lemmy that there would a larger group of participants.) 3, They’re beyond the scope of the average user. (By that last point, I mean most users primarily generate AI images or chats, so more complex generator-based events often fail to get attention.)

    i wonder if there could be some fun way to get users into learning about perchance and all the things that can be done on it as i think a lot of the traffic is just people who ai image gen stuff, and miss the vast library of other amazing gens there are. im sorta rambling now so Anyway, thank you for all the work you do. I hope some of this is useful. If you ever need help and there’s something within my ability to contribute to, I’d be happy to try.

    rud so i think that this is result of one of a few things, either she was blocked by so many people that she has been shadowed or she is trying to use a vpn channel such as the ones offered by opera vpn that have also been blocked.

    I’ve spent the past several weeks doing everything I possibly can to stop a persistent bad actor from repeatedly posting disallowed content on my page. I’ve used all the moderation tools provided in the plugin guide and even built additional systems of my own in an attempt to stop them. Members of the community and I have spent countless hours of our personal time trying to address the situation.

    At first, this individual was able to bypass bans — likely by using a VPN or similar methods — and continued returning to post more. I implemented extensive regex filters to combat the issue, but unfortunately, those filters ended up penalizing users who were following the rules. Since filters currently apply globally across all galleries, rather than just the public one, legitimate users were affected as well.

    With help from more experienced users, I’ve tried numerous approaches to prevent this troll from posting highly disturbing pornographic content, but there appears to be a fundamental vulnerability in the way page code currently works. I won’t go into specifics here, but I hope that @perchance can consider changes to make bans truly effective and to close the loopholes that allow page manipulation by people we simply want to block.

    It would also be extremely helpful if content filters could be applied to the public gallery only, rather than to all galleries on a page. At this point, I’ve banned close to 500 user tags — the vast majority of which are likely just one or two people returning with a fresh user tag from vpn use or however they may be doing so.

    Another serious issue that has emerged is the manipulation of the thumbs-up and thumbs-down voting system. Several users from another page migrated to my generator after a bad actor there appeared to have found a way to repeatedly downvote their images. This not only discouraged those creators from participating but also led to their work becoming far less visible, undermining the community’s ability to share and enjoy content fairly.

    After exhausting every possible solution, I finally made the difficult decision to disable the gallery on my page. I never wanted things to reach this point. My only goal has been to create and share images like everyone else, and my efforts to stop this disruptive behavior have been motivated by a desire to protect the community of rule-abiding users who are also negatively impacted by these ongoing issues.

    Edit a small word change, also i intentionally left off a link to my gen im not wanting to advertise just to bring attention and hopefully find a solution to this. i know the dev is a busy person so ty in advance for even taking the time to read this if you do. if it would help to demonstrate some of the things i have mentioned above i can provide links or screenshots anything at all if it helps.

     

    just had two different users have an issue with adding a new pfp to use in the chat. on both i personally made sure that it was done correctly .jpg not to massive neither image should have been triggered by the filter, one of the two had even been used prior but the user cleared browser cache and needed to reupload it where earlier it had worked, now once i paste the link and select the image the chat becomes very laggy and takes much longer than usual to send replies

    older images uploaded seem to work fine short clip to demo what the lag looks like
