Across different gens: Several users are experiencing issues with the Perchance public gallery. While they are able to upload images and receive working image links, their content does not appear for other users. Additionally, after refreshing, their own posts may disappear from the gallery. Notably, this issue seems to affect only 18+ (NSFW) images—SFW posts appear to upload and remain visible without problems (though this is still a working hypothesis). Common troubleshooting steps like clearing the browser cache have produced inconsistent results.

    I’ve encountered this a couple of times recently and both were due to references to children in the prompt. The first was a ‘sexy young woman carrying a young child on her hip’ and the second was a a woman swinging on a ‘child’s swing’ in a playground. Removing the ‘child’s’ solved the issue. So check the prompts to see if there is anything even remotely referencing children even if seems totally benign.

    Edit: Forgot to add that the images will vanish from your own galleries as well as the Public gallery.

      it’s not my prompt nor my pic. if this is the solution to something mystery (which might be only part of it), it’s not me in my place to announce it.

    Same issue - none of my prompts have children, young, child, kid, or anything like that. I posted images of a ghost woman, fully clothed, no blood or gore, and it stuck… for about a minute, then disappeared. Also made an art style prompt combining Junji Ito and Stephen Gammell (without using their names) and it seems 90% of the images I post using it are scrubbed. Happy nudity and BDSM seem fine, but artistic macabre? Not a chance.

    ETA we are calling it a “Scary Filter” in one of the gen chats - anything I share to public that is even remotely scary gets scrubbed, even images without a mention of a person at all in the prompt.

          I believe I am the user that RudBo mentioned and I have sent @perchance@lemmy.world a DM with a prompt that I believe is triggering this as after posting it seems to be removed from all galleries (both public and elsewhere). I’m unsure exactly what part of the prompt is triggering it being removed/not displaying in the galleries after a refresh (and including trying using the prompt in other browsers and submitting from there as well to avoid caching issues etc.)
