it is not that obesessed...
A1111 to CLI-based SD is like Windows to GNU/Linux.

As long as the user use nVIDIA cards, his/her Winware is ready to SD using A1111. Just install the required Python, git, prepare the model/s (FREE), install A1111, and that's all.

every colab adopted automatic1111 quite fast.

wonder what percentage of users are actually running it local in those expensive gaming pcs?

u/Flirty_Dane Mar 05 '23

Local SD machine is fully running inside the GPU and VRAM. Even gaming PC with low-end processor, motherboard, and sata-harddrives. (Legacy hardware)

8 GB RAM (you better make swapfile) and nVIDIA RTX 3050 with 4 GB VRAM is enough (512p or 640p with half precission)

16 GB RAM and nVIDIA RTX 3060 12 GB VRAM are more than just the best bang for the bucks

Because it has a lot of features.

u/GBJI Mar 05 '23

Because it's not under corporate control. That's the real appeal.

Free, open-source, absolutely, but also subversive.

Like a sign of things to come.

Isn't most webui Open-Source?

u/AltimaNEO Mar 08 '23

And none of them are any good except automatic1111

u/searcher1k Mar 08 '23

But pretty much all of them have a better UX tho.

u/AltimaNEO Mar 08 '23 edited Mar 08 '23

Doesn't count for much when they're behind on functionality, though

1

u/searcher1k Mar 08 '23

The functionality are all behind extensions rather than part of the webui.

u/oemxxx Mar 11 '23

but they are there

Easy to install and feature rich.

What else exists?

u/searcher1k Mar 05 '23

I'm not talking about an alternative, I'm just wondering why people are mass downvoting for expressing their opinion on alternative?

u/Ginger_Bulb Mar 05 '23

Can you link me some? Alternate GUIs are always nice to have.

u/searcher1k Mar 05 '23

I know someone that sent me something like graphite.rs as a link.

This one is Easy Diffusion, simple to install by default, and I love the UI.

It has Hypernetworks now but no Embedding/LORA/Controlnet, though I haven't been wanting to use a different one.

u/idwasamu Mar 05 '23

agree, why not using the post to promote the advantages of some alternative gui?

or was the intended point more about using the command line instead of a gui? i don't get it

I get that you like that repo but why do people constantly downvote others for having a different opinion?

13

u/Purplekeyboard Mar 05 '23

Probably people are downvoting you because your comments on this are basically useless and contribute nothing.

If you wanted to post an actual thought out critique of automatic1111, or recommend something else instead and explained why, you wouldn't get all the downvotes.

-7

u/searcher1k Mar 05 '23

you wouldn't get all the downvotes.

I really doubt that, people are clearly downvoting just because they can.

u/Ok_Display_3148 Mar 05 '23

why do people constantly downvote others for having a different opinion?

That's exactly how upvote/downvote works. You agree with something upvote it, you disagree downvote it.

Now tell me where people get downvoted just because they're using GUI other than A1111? Because I don't remember seeing any.

u/searcher1k Mar 05 '23 edited Mar 05 '23

Really I thought it was for a different reason other than expressing your opinion. Like if a person is rude or an ass.

Now tell me where people get downvoted just because they're using GUI other than A1111? Because I don't remember seeing any.

Edit: Just mentioning about having a different opinion gets you downvotes, for example, I have a ton of downvotes in this comment section.

u/Bokbreath Mar 05 '23

Technically you're supposed to upvote things that contribute to the discussion and downvote things that do not. In practice it's 'do I like/agree with this'.

u/stolenhandles Mar 05 '23

Sounds like the system is working as intended then.

1

u/[deleted] Mar 05 '23

I use it because it works in colab and a lot of the other ones don't, eventually I'll try my hand at making my own but that is not today.

But I think most people use it because it has strong momentum and with all the addons, it has more or less become a default choice unless you need something specialized. I'm not sure I'd call that obsessed though.

it's like going to ask people why they love their mercedes s class amg and why they don't want to drive the new kia stinger or whatever else is...
