4 years today, the name BluePower was founded.
I started using this name back when I am still very active on the Perchance generator development back in 2022, and is being continued for further generator developments throughout my 2023-2024 era of Perchance. If you want to see what generators I have created, you can check out my generator manager (gen hub) page.
After the devastating incident that happened in 2024 though, everything changed. Generator updates started slowing down sharply, and big plans for the next updates has to be somewhat cancelled after that. Since then, I learned to slowly move on from the chaos.
Now, I just have a new different passion. I am still simply looking on generators here and update my own occasionally as I wanted to. But now, I have a focus on very different things.
Right now, I am semi-retiring from Perchance. Since I departed a little bit on the incident, a few years later, the platform has never felt the same today. It no longer used to shine a bright on me as it was used to, especially that there were generator events back when I came back from the 2023 break.
But for a big part of my life, Perchance has helped me explore what I can imagine and create from my web coding experience that I am currently advancing outside the platform. Perchance is still an integral part on my current workflow for testing stuff out, but I am no longer making significant generator updates on there anymore.
Always nice to see you post. I understand what you mean, at least to an extent, about how things have changed as the site has grown. I’m part of the group that came in around 2023, and the scene definitely feels different now.
I’ve had to change so much stuff on my own main gen because I somehow became a target for persistent trolls. It honestly drains the fun out of things sometimes. More than once I’ve wanted to just delete the page and move on.
But the users who visit my pages and are genuinely decent people always remind me why I keep going. Even with all the frustration that comes from dealing with jerks, it still makes me happy knowing that something I made was enjoyed by someone else.
Cheers for what was, and for what’s still to come. I hope you’re able to find that spark again with your new projects, whatever they may be.
