Is it really doomed because competition showed up? I'd be surprised if they didn't get quite a bit of paying users right away.

I get that competing with an open self-hosted alternative is a tough sell, but is this really different from other pay vs self-host scenarios?

Try them both and see for yourself, see how generating 1000 images via SD feels vs 1000 images on Dall-E 2.

I’d bet one you’ll hit 1000 generations much faster than the other.
