How locked down is it? My problem with a lot of these is I like to make really ridiculous meme type images, but I run into walls for dumb reasons. Like if I want to make something thats "copyrighted" like a mix of certain characters from one franchise or whatever, I cannot sometimes I get told that the model cannot generate copyrighted content, even though courts ruled that AI generated stuff cannot be copyrighted either way...
I feel like AI should just be treated as fair use as long as its not 100% blatantly a literal clone of the original work.

Ideogram and Flux both have their own broad set of limitations that are non-technical and unpublished. IMO they are not really motivated by legal concerns, other than the lack of transparency itself.
So maybe the issue is that transparency, and that the hazy legal climate means no transparency. You can't go anywhere and see the detailed list of dataset collection and captioning opinions for proprietary models. Open Model Initiative, trying to make a model, did publish their opinions, and they're not getting sued anytime soon. However, their opinions are an endless source of conflict.
I've been using Venice.ai which offers afaik the most uncensored service currently available, outside of running your own instances. No problem with prompts that include copyrighted terms.
