Stable Diffusion 2.1

Dear Stable Diffusion community, model trainers, and developers,

I really miss the original Stable Diffusion 2.1 It had a unique aesthetic, color handling, and creative freedom, and many results felt more artistic and less “polished” compared to newer versions.

Would anyone be willing to bring back, restore, or recreate a clean, unfiltered version of SD 2.1 — ideally close to the original release? I’d be incredibly grateful, and I know others in the community feel the same.

Thank you so much for all the amazing work you do!

for now, some mirrors: Error 404 https://huggingface.co/stabilityai/stable-diffusion-2

Are these versions for Stable Diffusion installed on a computer? Is there an online option?

Hmm… I don’t know about online usage options for these models…
Of course, paid hosting is possible…
But I don’t know about existing ones.

Thanks I get it

I am in the same boat, really hoping to revive SD 2.1 somehow. I am willing to pay the cost of hosting, but would like how to go about doing that. Anybody know how?

So I’ve created a working version of Spaces for now. https://huggingface.co/spaces/John6666/sd21_zero

(Screenshot on Zero GPU)

However, the CPU Spaces are too slow to be useful for image generation, so please duplicate and use either Zero GPU Spaces (up to 10 simultaneous instances with a $9/month subscription), GPU Spaces (pay-as-you-go), or locally (depending on your GPU).:sweat_smile:
