Elaborate?

I'm being kind of tongue in cheek because I understand that this is for just making things really easy and ComfyUI is a node based editor that most people would have trouble with. But the best UI for local SD generation that the community is using is https://github.com/comfyanonymous/ComfyUI https://github.com/comfyanonymous/ComfyUI

  Agreed. It's worth the learning curve for the sheer power you can enable your workflows. I've always wanted to toy around with node based architectures and this seemed quite easy after using A1111 extensively. The community providing ready to go workflows has made it quite enjoyable too.

    I can’t seem to get myself to switch. I’ve only used A1111 a dozen times and only for funny work images… I can’t seem to get myself to switch over to comfy because it looks rather intimidating.

      I mean A1111 is great if you are a casual user as it has everything ready at your fingertips. When you want to apply advanced workflows and repetitive tasks or use something cutting edge then Comfy is handy. Another A1111 alternative to try which focuses on prompt generation is: https://github.com/lllyasviel/Fooocus https://github.com/lllyasviel/Fooocus

  If you are a programmer at heart, ComfyUI will feel very comfortable (pun intended). It's basically a visual programming environment optimized for the type of compositional programming that machine learning models desire. The next thing this space needs is someone to build an API hosting every imaginable model on a vast farm of GPUs in the cloud. Use ComfyUI and other apps to orchestrate the models locally, but send data to the cloud and benefit from sharing GPU resources far more efficiently. If anyone has a spare thousand hours to kill, I would build that and connect it up with the various front-ends including ComfyUI, A111, etc.. not a small amount of effort, but it will be rewarding.

      Sure, they’d be well placed to do this.
