Man, there are way too many AI image generators popping up lately. Which one are you guys mainly using now?

Last year around this time I was still stubbornly running everything locally, but this year I’ve been mixing it up more: for bulk e-commerce images I use online fast models, and only fire up ComfyUI when I need fine control. Honestly my main tool depends on the job, can’t say any one does it all.

If I had to pick one that’s most convenient day-to-day, right now it’s Flux—it’s got a high tolerance for errors when generating portraits and materials, and the cost of redoing a version is way lower than before. I keep SD around for stylization and consistency fine-tuning. Do you guys stick with one tool all the way, or do you also switch based on the scenario?

Same here, depends on the job. For e-commerce bulk orders, I definitely wouldn’t dare to run ComfyUI—way too slow.

Flux really is rock solid for portraits—I can usually nail it in one revision, whereas with SD I’d have to gacha through several.

Anyone else just stick to one tool? I’m lazy, so I go full MJ all the way—only downside is my wallet’s feeling the burn.
