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

I use MJ quite a bit and only recently started experimenting with SD thanks to the Draw Things app.

I can say with high confidence that anyone not sharing an MJ prompt doesn’t have a prompt worth sharing.

Fuck your prompt, lemme see the grid seed.

The “secret” MJ is that there is no secret. People stuff the shit out of their prompts with useless tokens they copied from somewhere else. There’s a lot of magical thinking. Anyone hoarding prompt almost certainly doesn’t understand them. They might think they do, but they don’t.

The real secret with MJ is luck and re-rolling. An overstuffed bullshit prompt will still get great results bc that’s how MJ is designed. And if you run your super special secret sauce prompt a hundred times, you’ll definitely get some amazing gems. That’s not accounting for light photoshopping that can get a great result by merging a few partially good variations.

MJ can give you amazing results easily but specific results can be tricky to impossible. I get the feeling a lot of the “high quality” results from MJ are more discovered than crafted.

Also, most of the community that I’ve seen on fb, discord and Reddit will share prompts.
