How do you interface with DALL-E?
For MidJourney I was painfully surprised to find that everything is done through chat messages on a Discord server.
I'm not a paid member, so I have to enter my prompts in public channels. It's extremely easy to lose your own prompts in the rapidly flowing stream of prompts going on. I can kind of see why they did it that way--maybe, if I squint really hard--to try to promote visibility and community interaction, but it's just not happening. It's hard enough to find my own images, say nothing about follow what someone else is doing. This is literally the worst user experience I have ever had with a piece of software.
There are dozens of channels. It's so spammy, doing it through Discord. It's constantly pinging new notifications and I have to go through and manually mute each and every one of the channels. Then they open a few dozen more. Rinse. Repeat.
I understand paid users can have their own channels to generate images, but I really don't see the point in paying for it when, even subtracting the firehose of prompts and images, it's still an objectively shitty interface to have to do everything through Discord chat messages.
- pjgalbraith 4y agoYou use a web app to interface with it. Agree going from DALL-E 2 to Midjourney is pretty painful. Hopefully Midjourney create a web UI for it like OpenAI/Craiyon.
- throwaway675309 4y agoYeah that's definitely one of the worst aspects of using midjourney, supposedly a API is coming but it doesn't look like it's going to be happening anytime soon. I don't know who thought that discord would make a good GUI front end...
