“Open weights mean you can self-host, fine-tune, and customize. ComfyUI + Stable Diffusion is the power user stack.”
“Company instability and leadership changes are concerning. The open-source models are great but the company's future is uncertain.”
“Stable Diffusion with ControlNet and LoRA fine-tuning gives artists more control than any closed model.”
