R2V-style reference generation may slowly make LoRAs and Civitai obsolete
Suibeam · reddit · 2026-08-20
A Reddit user argues that R2V-style reference-based generation, already implemented in models like H3, is gradually making LoRA fine-tuning obsolete — which in turn erodes Civitai's revenue and usefulness. Given Civitai's earlier compliance with credit-card censorship, the author sees this as good for the community but bad for the platform.
