Porkbun has been my best experience by far
Aww cute, I could see this being an animated film
Shapeshifter (prompt)
I am a shapeshifter born into a society of strict conformity. My people have long since given up the ability to shift, seeking a world of order and routine above all else. I feel trapped, suffocated by the rigid expectations of my kind. But when a group of rebels seeks my help to overthrow our oppressive rulers, I am forced to choose - follow the path set before me or embrace the wild unknown.
Writing community
Thought I'd make this community as I'm wanting to get back into writing and started messing about with NovelAi's text models again, hope we can all share some ideas or just share our work

AMD Stable Diffusion Web UI troubleshooting fix! (finally)
After forever of trying to get stable diffusion to work with my new AMD gpu (6700XT) this is what finally fixed it for me. So glad to finally have stable diffusion back after switching off of Nvidia! (Credit to user DemiEngi on reddit for the fix)
First run
amdgpu-install
Before we continue, we have to add the repo for the ROCm version we'll be using, this can be done by running
sudo add-apt-repository "deb https://repo.radeon.com/rocm/apt/5.2.5 ubuntu InRelease" sudo apt-get update
This bit seems to be highly specific to this version, you can't just change the number and have it work if you want to try newer versions of ROCm sadly
This script can install various bits and pieces on an as-needed basis, much unlike Windows where it's one and done, the whole thing is modular on Linux. In my case I haven't a fucking clue what's necessary for Stable Diffusion and what isn't, and don't intend on spending ages reading up to see what's what, so I install what I think is everything using this command
sudo amdgpu-install --rocmrelease=5.2.5 --usecase=graphics,multimedia,rocm,amf,lrt,opencl,hip,mllib,workstation
The --rocmrelease=5.2.5 part may change depending on what's available at the time, I based my decision to use 5.2.5 on what PyTorch recommends here https://pytorch.org/get-started/locally/ at the time of writing the 1.13.1 version recommend ROCm 5.2, so I went with the latest revision to that, 5.2.5
Give yourself a reboot once this is done and make sure everything's working okay, then run
rocminfo | grep 'Name'
to make sure your GPU is being detected
Name: gfx1031 Marketing Name: AMD Radeon RX 6700 XT
should be somewhere in the output.
You'll note it says gfx1031 in mine - technically the 6700XT isn't usable with ROCm for some reason, but actually it is, so you run
export HSA_OVERRIDE_GFX_VERSION=10.3.0
to make the system lie about what GPU you have and boom, it just works. We'll cover how to make this persistent further down if you want that.
Lastly you want to add yourself to the render and video groups using
sudo usermod -a -G render <YourUsernameHere> sudo usermod -a -G video <YourUsernameHere>
3 - Install Python - this bit seems pretty straight forward, but in my case it wasn't that clean cut, rocm depends on python2, but Stable Diffusion uses python3
sudo apt-get install python3
then you want to edit your .bashrc file to make a shortcut (called an alias) to python3 when you type python - to do this you run
nano ~/.bashrc
or use your preferred text editor of choice, I'm not your boss. Add this
alias python=python3 export HSA_OVERRIDE_GFX_VERSION=10.3.0
to the bottom of the file, and now your system will default to python3 instead,and makes the GPU lie persistant, neat.
4 - Get AUTOMATIC1111
This step is fairly easy, we're just gonna download the repo and do a little bit of setup. You wanna make sure you have git installed
sudo apt-get install git
then once you've got that you run
git clone https://github.com/AUTOMATIC1111/stable-diffusion-webui cd stable-diffusion-webui python -m venv venv source venv/bin/activate python -m pip install --upgrade pip wheel
This clones the latest version, moves into that folder, makes and activates a virtual environment, then updates pip. This is where we stop with what's on the AUTOMATIC1111 wiki and go our own way
5 - Install Torch, thankfully this bit is kinda easier, as the PyTorch website helpfully provided the exact command to run
pip3 install torch torchvision torchaudio --extra-index-url https://download.pytorch.org/whl/rocm5.2
With this version of Torch installed you're almost done, but just to be safe check that you haven't somehow got the non-ROCm version installed as happened to me using
pip list | grep 'torch'
You should only see versions that say rocm5.2, if not uninstall the offending ones using
pip uninstall torch==<WrongVersionsHere>
6 - Running Stable Diffusion
At this point you should be basically good to go, for my specific gpu I'd recommend having medvram enabled, but you can probably get away without it if you're sticking to single 512x512 images. I can get as far as 760x760 before it complains about a lack of vram. To run it you
python launch.py --precision full --no-half
or
python launch.py --precision full --no-half --medvram
if you wanna do big pictures.
This should cover just about everything, but if I've forgotten anything and you run into issues let me know and I'll try to help and edit the post. Before we continue, we have to add the repo for the ROCm version we’ll be using, this can be done by running You can edit webui-user.sh and uncomment line 13
export COMMANDLINE_ARGS=""
then add your arguments, i.e --precision full --no-half in to the quotation, so you only have to run webui-user.sh instead, if you prefer.
