1 year ago Sorry to break it to you, but it's useless, man. It's the community versus the company, and the 'community' uses the company's tools. Basically, we depend on them, and we're an open-source community. Whatever we do, they can just see our code, add more protection in the future and make things harder for us.
There are some collab with exploits (which can allow free users to use Colab as before) that exist (check it out here), but it's just a matter of time before the Colab team updates their machine and makes things harder. They are starting to ban more and more words that trigger disconnection.
The reason the exploit collabs still work until now is that the userbase is still not large. Google's eyes are on the most popular ones, like camenduru's or thelastben's, and both repositories no longer 'support' the free user anymore. (My theory)
What happened?
All of us know that recently colab blocked access to use stable diffusion with colab free (not paid plan). We need a genius person to solve this problem with a smart trick. Let's start.
Colab cell output
Which colab and model(s) were you using when the error occurred?
https://colab.research.google.com/github/camenduru/stable-diffusion-webui-colab/blob/main/stable/stable_diffusion_1_5_webui_colab.ipynb
I test other projects but others did the same.
Which Public WebUI Colab URL were you using when the error occurred?
gradio.live
If you used HiRes mode when the error occurred, please provide the Hires info
