"Good with any intel based Mac” …except not. #571
Description
https://diffusionbee.com/download says,
MacOS - Intel 64 Bit
Good with any intel based Mac.
Except that this version only supports macOS 13.1 or later, and there are plenty of Intel-based Macs which cannot run macOS 13.
This restriction should be made clear on the download page, and ideally, versions compatible with older operating systems linked.

Sure but AI models are completely unusable on these old machines.
There is simply not enough performance or GPU memory available to do anything concerning local AI models.
There is a few nieche cases like the last intel Mac pro with a AMD Radeon Pro Vega II
But even that monstrosity of a card is slower than the NPU in an ipad air (talking about the M3 or the M4 model)
So please just forget that idea...

Forget the idea that the documentation should be updated to reflect reality?
