Wow!

for context: AUTOMATIC1111 created and maintains (maintained?) an extremely popular and active web ui for stable diffusion. Beast-mode maintainer.

Even after the debacle w stability.ai (who, to their great credit, I believe, normalized discord chatroom relations rapidly), that’s a string of bad luck for this community keystone of the nascent txt2img technological tranche.

Whatever the eventual steady state of this matter, I hope this person isn’t burning out in the process.

    “Whether ’tis nobler in the mind to suffer // The slings and arrows of outrageous fortune…”
and all that jazz..

Lurking GitHub employees.. give us the verdict..!

Looking at the Reddit thread about this, there was some arguably racist stuff going on in his repo which could've been related to this suspension. I'm not sure whether this is the right way to handle such things (banning those specific repo's might be better), but it would be somewhat understandable.

Reading that thead, https://www.reddit.com/r/StableDiffusion/comments/103upr6/co... says the user could have been banned for racism. We're not talking subtle stuff, either.

Looks like relying on a centralised github isn't the most reliable choice. It's convenient, but if you don't want to be held ransom by Microsoft's decisions, then a self hosted repository has to be the way forwards.

Yeah, someone should invent a version control system that does not rely on some central entity but is actually distributed.

> A possible reason are the apparently racist game mods he'd also been creating on the same account, including removing any non-white characters from Rimworld and a mod called 'peaceful protests' which is seemingly criticizing the valid upset about George Floyd's murder by the state.
