The cheapest verified option is Chroma at Free.

Why people leave Adobe Firefly

  • Adobe Ecosystem: Requires an Adobe ID and works best within their paid software suite.
  • Stylistic Limits: Can feel slightly less 'wild' and artistic than Midjourney.
  • Credit System: High-volume usage requires purchasing 'Generative Credits'.
