Which one should you pick?
Ideogram
Use it when the image contains words. For everything else its advantage narrows considerably.
- Posters, logos and social media graphics with text
Stable Diffusion
The choice when volume, privacy or precise control matter more than convenience. For occasional images, a hosted service costs less than the time spent setting this up.
- High-volume generation where per-image cost adds up
- Work that cannot leave your own machine
