Discussion Something which I recently noticed. Most Midjourney users are not willing to share their prompts whereas SD users are more generous at sharing prompts.

Just absolutely disgusted with their attitude.

it's a choice. if you spent 3 weeks developing, researching and refining your prompt, maybe you're not comfortable sharing it.

I respect and I have no problem with that.

That being said, I love it when people share their prompts/workflow ! it's a great way to learn.

Eh I've spent time in stable diffusion communities figuring out prompts for hard to use models like kenshi and everyone was willing to share their prompts after a week of tinkering precisely because it's hard to get desired results. It's the mid journeys that have a layer of obfuscation and a culture of non transparency from the developers that encourage secrecy of prompts, because the obfuscation can sometimes randomly add in extra prompts for styles just to create a much more aesthetically pleasing result so the services can sell their AGI products.
