3. Diffusion Bee The easiest way for macOS users to use Stable Diffusion is probably Diffusion Bee. You only need a Mac with macOS 12.5.1 or higher. It also works on intel chipsets, but Apple silicon like the M1/M2 is recommended. And the best thing is the possibility to use Diffusion Bee completely offline and private, so nothing of your creations will be uploaded unless you want to share to Arthub.ai. It comes with a very clean and easy to use UI with and a one-click installer. The tool supports all common functions like text-2-img, img-2-img, in-/outpainting, upscaling and even custom models. They also have a very active and helpful community on GitHub and Discord.

This is an acceptable tool because: "he best thing is the possibility to use Diffusion Bee completely offline and private, so nothing of your creations will be uploaded unless you want to share" so we are not leaking IPR publicly.

Looks like they're working on a Windows version: https://diffusionbee.com/download

Downloaded and installed: DiffusionBee-1.5.1-arm64_TF_SD1.4_FP32l:

MacOS - Apple Silicon - HQ Version Runs 2 times slower but produces better images. Good with M1 / M2 etc. processors.

Download is about half a gig. And < 2.0 GB installed.

[JohnTigue]

Ah, then when you run it for the first time it downloads the model for another ~3.5GB (SD is about 4GB so that makes sense).

[JohnTigue]

Oh, seems there 8 separate model files to download. Not sure of total local storage hit for all this.

[JohnTigue]

Works well enough.

Don't see any negative prompt UI :(
