Hi; welcome help from anyone. Have just joined Perchance and uploaded one image and asked Perchance to remove the background. The app has been stuck at 'finalizing image' for 40 minutes. Is this normal?

You can't just say "perchance".

[–] betterdeadthanreddit@lemmy.world 3 points 18 hours ago

Try !perchance@lemmy.world or other slop-enjoyer communities. This isn't tech support.

People burning the planet down for shitty AI image editing?

Unfortunately so...

I don't use Perchance, but what was the image resolution?

I'd expect the processing time to grow linearly in the image area, and I imagine that you could probably find an image that, if the thing has sufficient memory available, will take quite some time to process.

If it is particularly high resolution and you just want a test image to see whether you're having some other problem, you might try using a low-resolution image to check.
