I've been playing with Stable Diffusion too, and the gacha/slot machine comparison is apt.
1 out of 50-100 images feels worth going through the followup of upscaling, tweaking and making something presentable for my low stakes desire of "gallery of wallpapers matching my particular taste."
The big deal for me is "low stakes." The catboy twinks have the wrong number of nipples? Your 20-page nobody-actually-reads-it report goes rampant and screams "pork pie!" in the middle of page 12? Nobody dies, no important process is at risk. I don't trust LLMs with code because "plausible nonsense" isn't good enough there. One missed subtle ! or & compketely changes the behaviour.
I should try ComfyUI; to be blunt, I went with Automatic1111 because there was a decent walkthrough on how to set it up on a Radeon card (using distrobox to isolate the nastiness that is Ubuntu from the rest of my machine)
IIRC setting up comfyui for AMD is the same as with A1111, it just only works on linux because it doesn't have directml support. I just cloned the conda environment I used for A1111, IIRC I uninstalled the pytorch libraries from it, then let comfyui install the versions it wanted. I don't think there was anything more involved than that, just setting up a launch script with the right environment settings to try to mitigate the frequent hard system crashes I get with ROCm which may or may not have been solved by switching from ROCm 5.7 to 6.0, changing a certain kernel value, adding the right environment settings, and underclocking my 6800 even more than it already was - I haven't crashed since then but I haven't stress tested it either.
