## When NOT to use x-stable-diffusion

- x-stable-diffusion is archived on GitHub. Prefer an active alternative unless you maintain a private fork or need a frozen dependency.
- Model Training: Try prompting and RAG first; fine-tuning is the answer to style/format, not missing knowledge.
- Inference & Serving: Self-hosting rarely beats a hosted API on cost until you have steady, high-volume traffic.
