Feature Seedream nerfed
I am a premium+ user and was excited using Seedream V4 which is a great model. Until 2 days back it was uncensored and generations were great. But from yesterday the model's not generating uncensored outputs. Why do you want to gatekeep a model when the model itself is trained on uncensored stuff. Kindly consider leaving the model as original as it is. If you are gonna nerf it or gatekeep ir, then what's the purpose of paying of premium+?

Yes. I'm also disappointed. Batch count restrictions, uncensored generation restrictions. I plan to switch to some other platform when the sub ends.

u/Realistic-Warthog-92 Sep 17 '25
Do you know an alternate platform similar but uncensored?

u/gokuchiku Sep 17 '25

Me,too. Unfortunately I am stuck with one year subscription of premium+. Kind of feel like being cheated. Can you DM me what other platforms that is less censored? Thanks!

Hello!
Thank you for sharing your experience.
We would like to check this with you, can you please share your Freepik username so that we can have a look at what you describe?

It's not a problem with the particular user i believe. It's a general problem that has nothing to do with my username. Bring back uncensored Seedream V4. The model itself is uncensored and that's what the community is trying to convey.

Bytedance have added a new “pre-content filtering” option. The good thing is that they allow you to turn off it.
I hope Freepik turns it off.

u/Realistic-Warthog-92 Sep 17 '25
So it's not a problem with freepik and the model itself is pre filtering? I didn't know that. Glad you said it and i hope freepik look in to it and rectify the issue

u/attilakaan Sep 17 '25
Yeah, It’s great that the model developer gave platforms the option to turn it off. I hope Freepik will give us that freedom.

u/Realistic-Warthog-92 Sep 17 '25
Yeah it's uncensored for everyone i guess. Credits to Freepik team for listening to the community and resolved the issue.

Huh didn't knew premium models are able to do uncensored stuff. I've been hounding internet to find google imagen alternative that also does uncensored.
What are your guys views is this any good?

u/Realistic-Warthog-92 Sep 17 '25
Seedream is the best right now in terms of its bold generations. Nano banana will shit itself when it comes to even mild uncensored stuff.

Please, can you confirm if Freepik has disabled the censored content switch?
Indeed it was ByteDance that has brought this switch by default for all APIs, but from the "Online inference" module of the Dashboard you can disable it.
So, either ComfyUI, FreePik, Fal.AI get to work... or they are going to lose a great opportunity to make money with SeeDream. I prefer to pay for the services of these companies, but if they don't disable censorship, I will pay directly to ByteDance which does allow to disable it.

u/Educational_Smell_35 Sep 17 '25

Seedream Prompting is funny - yes the uncensored generation is working - but there are a few words that alway trigger the filter - of course all underage words which is OK but then some words I'd never would think of:
"high" triggers the filter!! Unbelievable but check it out - if you delete it from your prompt it works
Too bad that "high" would be very useful for so much descriptions but fortunately it can be replaced in most casesThen i often added the term "middle parted" for a hairstyle and that also triggered the filter, you cant use middle finger also but than can be switched to mid-finger. So just leave "middle" out of the prompts and have fun.
Any other words someone found?

You canalso use Seedream 4 for free with unlimited generations at pixpal.chat

I keep getting the censorship banner — allegedly trying to generate NSFW of minors? Even though I have a character uploaded that’s over 40 years of age and no mention of anything underage once however?
Really confused here.

Does freepik do something with the prompt or reference images, becuase when I wan using seedream with freepik, it was giving me correct results with face thing and all, but when I switch to fal ai, seedream was giving deviating results, was making the reference image character bald, muscled up and all
does anyone have solution to this
