    It just refuses to generate anything. As soon as I open it, all those logs in the console start to populate before I even do anything.

      Have you tried using other browsers or using other devices?
      By refusing to generate anything, clicking the ‘Generate’ button doesn’t generate text on the output area after a while?
      Does it only say ‘Loading’ upon clicking and nothing happens?
      Does it say ‘Verifying’ on the top right of page upon clicking ‘Generate’?
      Have you tried exporting the data, then clearing the data, and importing the exported data? Tried using the page with Brave on my end and I don’t see any of those untrusted origin warnings. Also try changing the DNS setting into Cloudflare or GoogleDNS.

        It works on my phone, but no other browser on my PC. It just gets stuck on loading. I’ve tried clearing the cache, saving, deleting, then loading again, but I keep getting these weird errors.

                Are there any other options you possibly have? Sorry, I don’t feel comfortable clicking on random links. 🙏 I know you’re just trying to help, I’m just too new to a lot of this stuff, so I just want to be careful.

                Do you think it could just be my PC? Since it doesn’t seem to be affecting anything else?

                  It might be your network, but not sure, which is why I was suggesting try the Cloudflare VPN. Have you tried turning on any VPN when generating?

                  Have you also tried changing your browser’s DNS service? DNS is like the phonebook of your browser; it translates the URL to the correct IPs. By default, it would be using your IP’s DNS, but you can change it to Google’s or Cloudflare’s DNS service in the browser settings. Maybe your IP service is flagging the Perchance domain as untrusted, which is why it is throwing those warnings.

                  It can also be in your PC, do you have any antivirus/web protection software installed and running? On my end, windows defender doesn’t seem to flag it. Are you also maybe on a private network (i.e. work network/school network)?

                  I’ll ping the Dev in case @perchance.

                  Can you also try navigating to the Network tab on the Developer Tools? Then try to click generate and see the request to the Perchance server. The name of the request should be generate?userKey=... and please tell if there are any errors there.

                    Not even doing anything and I have over 500 requests in the network tab and it keeps going. Not used to coding, is that normal?

                    Soooo many things popped up but that was not one of them. It also seems Perchance does not like NordVPN or the other way around. Three errors popped up after hitting generate.
