I share these same concerns.
What this space desperately needs is to have models shared via torrent. As it is today Civit.ai has had problems with creators decided to take down their own models and suddenly people who were using them have no place to find them.
I suspect we'll see more and more lockdowns on what models are deemed "appropriate" and it would be nice to have a decentralized alternative.
Not to mention torrenting is the only rational way to sustainably host such large files at no cost.
- brucethemoose2 3y agoUh, I don't want to see an unmoderated, distributed CivitAI. That would be a unspeakable wasteland. And there already are torrents of SD models. Just filter by the .safetensors filetype. If would be nice if their hosting was decentralized though. Users seem to hoard LoRAs and merges in personal collection anyway, mind as well help distroute them so Civit doesn't have to enshittify so quick.
