Would you mind sharing some good alternatives that aren’t proprietary junk?

I believe pixart sigma is more open. The community hasn’t rallied around it though.

Edit: Fuck yes, pixart is AGPL!

In my experience these open models is where the real work is being done. The large supervised models like DALL-E etc are more flashy but there's a lot more going on behind the scenes than the model itself so it feels like it's hard to gauge the real progress being done

Now that everyone's no longer waiting in anticipation of SD3 perhaps we'll start seeing diversification of attention to other models.

There are a lot of fine-tunes of earlier Stable Diffusion models (SD1.5 and SDXL) that are better than this, and will continue to see refinement for some time yet to come. Those were released with more permissive licenses so they've seen a lot of community work built on them.
