"sign in to run"

That's a marketing opportunity being missed, especially given how crowded the space is now. The HN crowd is more likely to run it themselves when presented with signing up just to test out a single generation.

Uh, thanks for noticing it! We generally turn it off for popular models so people can see the underlying inference speed and the results but we forgot about it for this one, it should now be auth-less with a stricter rate limit just like other popular models in the gallery.

I wanted to use your service for a project but you can only sign in through github, I emailed your support about this and never got an answer, in the end I ended up installing SD Turbo locally. I think that a github only auth is losing you potential customers like myself.

I just got rate-limited on my first generation. The message is "You have exceeded the request limit per minute". This was after showing me cli output suggesting that my image was being generated.

I guess my zero attempts per minute was too much. You really shouldn't post your product on HN if you aren't prepared for it to work. Reputations are hard to earn, and you're losing people's interest by directing them to a broken product.

Are you using a vpn or at a large campus or office?

No, I was connected on my own private IP address.

It uses github auth, it’s not some complex process. I can see why they would need to require accounts so it’s harder to abuse it.

After all the bellyaching from the HN crowd when PyPI started requiring 2FA, nothing surprises me anymore.
