Agreed on UX feedback. It accumulated a lot of crufts from the old technologies to the new. This just echos my early feedback that co-iterating UI and the technology is difficult, you'd better pick the side you want to be on and there is only one correct side (and unfortunately, the current app is trying hard to be on both-side).
Unsolicited UX recs:
- strongly recommend a default model. The list you give is crazy long. It kind of recommends SD 1.5 in the UI text below the picker but has the last one selected by default. Many of them are called the same thing (ironically the name is "Generic" lol).
- have the panel on the left closed by default or show a simplified view that I can expand to an "advanced" view. Consider sorting the left panel controls by how often I would want to edit them (personally I'm not going to touch the model but it is the first thing).
You are doing great work but I wouldn't underestimate the value of simplifying the interface for a first-time user. It seems to have a ton of features but I don't know what I should actually be paying attention to / adjusting.
Is there a business model attached to this or do you have a hypothesis for what one might look like?
