It created a backlash because a) it was too popular with AI people hyping "THIS CHANGES EVERYTHING!" and people were posting low-effort transformations to the point that it got saturated and b) non-AI people were "tricked" into thinking it was a clever trick with real art since ControlNet is not ubiquitous outside the AI-sphere, and they got mad.

I rather liked it and actually didn't get to see as many examples as I wanted to.

Is there a good repository anywhere or is it just "wade through twitter"?
