Civitai exits the UK

I see Civitai is going to block UK users like me from 25 July because of the new online security legislation in the UK. Their explanation is that they don’t have the resources to respond adequately to meet the legislation around age verification etc. It’s a shame as there are a lot of great models and content on the platform (and admittedly a lot that isn’t great).

Generation is going to be less innovative, weird and fun than it’s been up to now and we’ll have to rely on mainstream models which, while very good and getting better all the time, aren’t as quirky or perhaps interesting.

What do other SDA users think?
