Making individual instances bigger is not a good thing, it makes everything more centralized.

I agree. I think one of the easiest ways to encourage users to bring up more instances is to minimize the requirements and steps needed to get a Kbin or lemmy instance running. Its not a very complex process to get an instance running, but it can be difficult to locate the relevant information you might need to spin up an instance without reaching out for support. That could end up putting people off of setting up an instance.

Yes if you have a spare PC with a fairly recent nvidia GPU and decent internet speeds or a couple hours to spare for inital setup, you can selfhost InvokeAI. You can use stable diffusion with quite a few open models and its not complex to setup.

I can't speak for everyone, but I really enjoyed the "get out of your way" style the app has. I also really liked that you had to slide to upvote/downvote on posts instead of having static buttons you can accidentally press. It also had a decent system for switching between multiple accounts. Finally, it's all open source so one could fork it and customize it if they wanted to.
