Stable Diffusion

Hi there, I've seen a few videos on yt showing it off and it looks incredibly powerful in finetuning the outputs of SD. It also looks dauntingly complicated to learn how to use it effectively.

For those of you, who played around with it - do you think it gives better results than A1111? Is it indeed better in finetuning? How steep was the learning curve for you?

I'm trying to figure out if I'd want to put in hours to learn how to use it. If it improves my ability to get out exactly the images I want, I'll go for it. If it does what A1111 does, just dressed up differently I'll sit it out :)
