Magnusviri[0], the original author of the SD M1 repo credited in this article, has merged his fork into the Lstein Stable Diffusion fork.

You can now run the Lstein fork[1] with M1 as of a few hours ago.

This adds a ton of functionality - GUI, Upscaling & Facial improvements, weighted subprompts etc.

This has been a big undertaking over the last few days, and I highly recommend checking it out. See the mac m1 readme [3]

I simply don't use the closed source ones? Easy to filter (can I see the source?), and helps if I want to contribute as well.

Currently using https://github.com/hlky/stable-diffusion + https://github.com/hlky/stable-diffusion-webui which are both FOSS and works well.

Sounds like a hashtable ... is that what made you laugh ?

I just rewrote my personal website ( https://anonyfox.com ) to become statically generated (zola, runs via github Action) so the result is just plain and speedy HTML. I even used a minimal classless „css framework“ and ontop I am hosting everything via cloudflare workers sites, so visitors should get served right from CDN edge locations. No JS or tracking included.

As snappy as I could imagine, and I hope that this will make a perceived difference for visitors.

While average internet speed might increase, I still saw plenty of people browsing websites primarily on their phone, with bad cellular connections indoor or via a shared WiFi spot, and it was painful to watch. Hence, my rewrite (still ongoing).

Do fellow HNers also feel the „need for speed“ nowadays?
