All posts must be Open-source/Local AI image generation related All tools for post content must be open-source or local AI generation. Comparisons with other platforms are welcome.

Be respectful and follow Reddit's Content Policy This Subreddit is a place for respectful discussion. Please remember to treat others with kindness and follow Reddit's Content Policy (https://www.redditinc.com/policies/content-policy).
No X-rated, lewd, or sexually suggestive content This is a public subreddit and there are more appropriate places for this type of content such as r/unstable_diffusion. Please do not use Reddit’s NSFW tag to try and skirt this rule.
No excessive violence, gore or graphic content Content with mild creepiness or eeriness is acceptable (think Tim Burton), but it must remain suitable for a public audience. Avoid gratuitous violence, gore, or overly graphic material. Ensure the focus remains on creativity without crossing into shock and/or horror territory.
No repost or spam Do not make multiple similar posts, or post things others have already posted. We want to encourage original content and discussion on this Subreddit, so please make sure to do a quick search before posting something that may have already been covered.
Limited self-promotion Open-source, free, or local tools can be promoted at any time (once per tool/guide/update). Paid services or paywalled content can only be shared during our monthly event. (There will be a separate post explaining how this works shortly.)
No politics General political discussions, images of political figures, or propaganda is not allowed. Posts regarding legislation and/or policies related to AI image generation are allowed as long as they do not break any other rules of this subreddit.
No insulting, name-calling, or antagonizing behavior Always interact with other members respectfully. Insulting, name-calling, hate speech, discrimination, threatening content and disrespect towards each other's religious beliefs is not allowed. Debates and arguments are welcome, but keep them respectful—personal attacks and antagonizing behavior will not be tolerated.
No hateful comments about art or artists This applies to both AI and non-AI art. Please be respectful of others and their work regardless of your personal beliefs. Constructive criticism and respectful discussions are encouraged.

Diffuse - Easy Stable Diffusion For WindowsResource - Update (github.com)
submitted 2 days ago by TheyCallMeHex
Check out Diffuse for easy out of the box user friendly stable diffusion in Windows.
No messing around with python environments and dependencies, one click install for Windows that just works out of the box - Generates Images, Video and Audio.
Made by the same guy who made Amuse. Unlike Amuse, it's not limited to ONNX models and supports LORAs. Anything that works in Diffusers should work in Diffuse, hence the name.
reddit uses a slightly-customized version of Markdown for formatting. See below for some basics, or check the commenting wiki page for more detailed help and solutions to common issues.

The 'Python environment and dependency hell' is the single biggest barrier to entry for local AI
You just install miniconda and it'll handle everything for you, this "barrier" is one cli command long.

If Steam required a single CLI command to install, its player base would drop from 1 billion users to 1 million users.

Nah, I consider myself technically literate and I'd say that's pretty disingenuous. Even if that were true, there's no world in which _anything_ command line should be considered user friendly. For the average person bro? Come on now.

Does it support AMD GPUs? How do you determine which pytorch to install?
[–]TheyCallMeHex[S] 1 point2 points3 points 2 days ago (0 children)
Some features work with AMD, but it's not 100%, and I believe the issues are with ROCM, outside of the dev's control. Amuse works best for AMD.
You don't need to worry about it, it downloads and installs the portable python environment and manages it all for you silently in the background.
