Well, every website I find is either crashing either not working on mobile.

    If you’re mobile-only, that’s probably going to be a problem.

    The only tools I know are Glaze and Nightshade. Think of them as defense and offense, respectively. They both introduce subtle changes to your image that make it harder for AI to use it. Well I say subtle - the stronger the protection the more noticeable the effect is to the human eye.

    Glaze is defense, meaning AI can’t use the image to imitate your style. I don’t personally use it because I’m simply not well-known enough for anyone to want to specifically imitate my nonsense.

    Nightshade is offense, it poisons the AI’s data with useless information. Basically it makes the AI think that an image of, say, a cat is a chimney. That’s what I use on anything I upload.

    You can use both, though I don’t remember if there’s a recommended order in which to use them. The effect will then also be more noticeable. If you decide to use one or both, you should play around with the settings to see what’s tolerable to you and what makes sense for an individual image.

    Last time I looked, they were working on a mobile solution but I haven’t heard anything on that front, unfortunately.

      I saw this note on the nightshade website:

      For now, if you want to shade your own art, you should Nightshade it first, then Glaze it for protection.

      I think it would be neat if people could donate computer time to artists to run nightshade, but it doesn’t look like there’s a docker image with a web UI I could host.

        Oh nice, I seem to have missed that.

        Donating computer time would be a fantastic idea.
