> SD is the holy grail of AI art, if you can afford a computer or server to run SD + have the ability to figure out how to install python, clone Automatic1111 from git, and run the installer, its the best.

If you can afford Colab (which is free if you don’t want to use it too much), you can just click one of the existing A1111 colabs and run that, you don’t need to figure out python, git, or A1111 installs.

Free Colabs have started blocking any SD web-ui it detects (presumably because it's meant as a community service for ML researchers, not for people who want to play hentai gacha, and they're running out of server time)
