Here's some guides to installing Stable Diffusion (if you have a NVIDIA GPU with 2GB+ VRAM).
Installing AUTOMATIC1111, the most feature-rich and commonly-used UI:

AMD isn't well-supported. If you're running Linux there's a way to install AUTOMATIC1111 but otherwise features are very limited:

To try it out without installing anything you can use a web service, though they are lacking in features.
Stable Horde is a free network of people donating their GPU time, how long it takes depends on how many people are using it. It supports negative prompts, seperate the positive and negative prompts with "###":

The most notable non-Stable Diffusion generator is Midjourney, which tends to be nicer-looking and doesn't require as much fiddling with prompts but can have a samey style. However the only way to use it is through a Discord bot.
