Thank you for your feedback :) As shown in a figure in the section of VQGAN, VQGAN offers superior quality over VQVAE2 for a given amount of compute budget, and given that the generator of VQGAN is based on an architecture similar to VQVAE-1/2 (like DALL-E), it does not suffer from mode collapse or instability you mentioned.
