I thought it was because of the lack of actual users, the online censorship thats all happening at once, people be busy or like @thoryn said “I like this” is the comment, and a bunch of other factors. Its something we’re going to have to work on if as content creators want feedback or interaction with… well thats what I think.
Also, people just be busy.

I am still on SD Forge (which also embeds metadata), and it also has a metadata viewer, just have to drag and drop the pnf files into it.
There’s a few standalone ones as well, just search for prompt metadata viewer/reader.

You can also use this website for viewing image metadata: https://jimpl.com/

NovelAI (which I use) also embeds prompts in their images…

Didn’t know people here kept the meta data intact, I always assumed it’d be purged either by the uploader or the site when processing uploads.
Now that I know, I’ll definitely take a peek at how you’ve done things - I’ve enjoyed so many of your images.
(Full disclosure, last time I tried to generate pony images with Illustrious checkpoints, I couldn’t even get characters to consistently walk like quadrupeds, so it feels a bit like cheating if your base tags just works.)

And back to the topic, I wonder if more people abstain from commenting because of the same reasons as you.. if so, then that’s a never-ending circle of silence.

I will try to keep it in mind for the future, but I am inherently an introvert - so I make no promises.

I leave a comment from time to time, but it feels like yelling into an empty room.

I personally never bother to add prompts and stuff since they are embedded into the pictures. Comfy does it and
Invoke too. Just open a AI picture in notepad and all the info is there.

99% of the time, my only comment would be “I like this.” - so I just hit the upvote/fav icon instead.
Many times, I’m wondering what resources and prompts were used - but I figure if they don’t share it from the get-go, it’s for a reason, so I don’t bother asking.

Generally when people don’t see comments they don’t comment themselves, even if there’s other sorts of activity going on.

This has been a growing problem on any new and small site for some 15 or so years, when Twitter, Tumblr, Instagram, etc. took over as “where people go to talk online”. Even “established” platforms like Deviantart, ArtStation, or Newgrounds are barren of comments, relative to their size.

Most images on this website don’t get any comments, what’s up with that?
