without you ever knowing about it, as well as (perhaps) swapping in a cheaper-to-operate model some percentage of the time, perhaps as request loads peak, hoping you’ll just roll the dice and try again.

    Easiest GitHub install I have ever done - works well on both Linux and windows per my own testing. Go onto the Automatic1111 stable-diffusion-webui github and find the git clone link, and then, from a command shell, use “cd” to get into your directory of choice and then do a “git clone <link>”. After that, go into said folder and literally just run the webui.bat/.sh file (might be called webui or might be called setup, can’t remember). That’s it - it should install all of the packages and python stuff and everything for you, and from there, honestly just fuck around with it for a while. On Linux, I had to install a few extra things/screw around a bit to get it working fully, but it wasn’t too tough. I highly recommend also installing the “dynamic prompts” extension and playing around with wildcards and such. Civitai has some great models and LoRAs you can play around with, too - Dreamshaper is a great one. If you’ve not got a 4000-series GPU, I would suggest editing the webui-user.bat/sh file and adding “—medvram” or “—lowvram” to help you get higher res images at the cost of a little bit of speed. Let me know if you’ve got any more questions! If nothing else, it’s honestly just a lot of fun to use.
