There is a feature that was recently added which is the ‘Edit Password’ upon saving a generator that isn’t yours (you are remixing another person’s generator). It is for recovering/saving an edited generator without logging in (or those users that are having trouble with saving generators since the email verification is having problems).

Steps:

  1. Click edit in the generator you want to edit.
  2. Upon saving, and opt to create a generator (since you can’t save a generator to an account since you are not logged in), it would then give out a ‘edit password’. Remember/Save this generated string as well as the newly created URL (not the original one).
  3. Later on (as long as the local storage is not cleared) you can navigate again to that newly created page (while still not logged in into an account) then enter the edit password after clicking save to return back/apply your changes to the generator.

    So to avoid the potential of someone going to the generators page in the 5 second window in which it’s public–the first and only time it ever will be–you’d make an entire new email address, and perchance account, and set that up in your browser so you can have both accounts open at once? You do you, but man that seems like a lot of work to avoid that very slim chance 😅

      I might haven’t good enough at describing it - basically I’ll just stay logged out of Perchance entirely for that profile, and not creating an entirely new account, and I might also save the password and the generator link in my massive notes text file in case I lost it. In that case though, I think the private window could be a good alternative besides using a separate browser profile.
