Great project!

I have a question - how can you afford to run this? I looked at the server costs on google compute and runpod.io, and the ones with GPUs powerful enough to run SD are pretty expensive. I'm guessing you don't have a lot of paying users at the beginning, so I don't think you have enough revenue to cover the costs (at least when you're just getting started).

Do you just spend a lot of money to fund this, and hope that once you have enough users it will pay for itself? Or did you find some affordable way to run a server? If yes, and if it's not a secret - where are you renting the server, what are its specs, and how much does it cost?

I'd love to know this as well.

Stable diffusion only needs 4GB of VRAM to run on the low end so you can rent low-end consumer GPUs (nvidia RTX for example) for around $0.10 an hour to do the renders.

Shameless plug - We don’t require logging in! https://app.gooey.ai/CompareText2Img/?example_id=1uONp1IBt0Y

Does it generate images though? I gave it a prompt around an hour ago and it's still just spinning.

Yeah, seems like its been hugged to death a bit. A single GPU is not quite enough.

Completes in around a minute for me right now

I can’t even register with my own email domain because of “We do not support disposable email addresses!” error

It's a measure to prevent multi accounts. Some people really overuse free offering. Either your domain/IP is on a spam list or your email server may be misconfigured.
