From what I gathered from your service description it doesn't make sense to me that yu provide a service and they try to sue you If anything they should sue, aka block, the accounts of your users. It's them that are violating the tos, not you. It's weird replies on hn have been so cold towards you, if you want the internet defense force coming to your rescue I think you have to explain better why you are not violating the tos (reasonable tos). Your service is no different from youtube-dl and many other services from what I understand, right?

Also layout of your post is screwed up on mobile, I yhink it made you lost attention from mobile users which are many I guess



Oh interesting. And yes YouTube-dl is a good comparison.

To be clear, I’ve had a few accounts on Midjourney used mostly for testing and demo purposes. At the moment I don’t have any Midjourney account hence TOS violation doesn’t apply.


I think you can make midjourney stop by using social media pressure, but you need to improve communications. For example don't start with "I'm making 16k a month" because most will think you can afford a lawyer.

Also, I repeat, consider explaining better what you do and what exactly are they accusing you of doing wrong and why they are wrong in doing so.

Also now that I see the screenshots, the way you phrased things it did look like you were the official midjourney api, so the trademark violation is there for sure.


Thanks for the feedback.

I've made some changes to help avoid the confusion: https://share.cleanshot.com/Gl1fg0gx


I hope you will find the support to overcome this. Good luck
