I appreciate the user-focus move of displaying the CFG as a slider, but its a fine-grained value. That makes the app unable to replicate a specific render shared online. I suppose this is a tradeoff :) I just wish there was a common UI element that combined a slider and value display... Also, would be nice to share some binaries on GitHub!

Have you tried diffusionbee? It's not fully native but it does let you replicate prompts.

Mhm. DiffusionBee is Electron, so its UI is really just some CSS on HTML elements that looks vaguely Mac-ish.

Interesting UI, and great that's it's open-sourced!

M1 Mac owners should also check out the iPad version of Draw Things, which has a large number of features and is in very active development:

Be aware that there is a bug in macOS 13.2b1 that makes Draw Things unusable on that version of macOS. Hopefully Apple will fix that soon.

Does this have any sort of ability to feed it training data? I know I can do that with some SD frontends on Windows - ex: give it 5 pictures of my face, and have it generate a 3D avatar of me.

I doubt it, but even if it did you probably don't want to be re-training the set on your mac. There is plenty of instructions on how to train your face into the dataset using AWS. IIRC it costs around $20 of compute time.

No it costs far less.

you can use runpod.io it costs around $1 to retrain, ofc depends on the number of images and steps

In my opinion Draw Things is the best stable diffusion app currently available for macOS/iOS. It's free, it is available in the App Store, it manages downloading models and weights, it supports a wide selection of popular models as well as custom weights, and it supports inpainting, text2image, and image2image.

It has some oddities: it uses a sqlite database to store generated images rather than the more traditional files, and the UI is idiosyncratic. You have to follow the author's twitter feed to learn how to use the advanced features.
