No need to downgrade python, and no weird dance shoukd be needed. Use virtual environments! Conda is great if it's your first dabbbling with virtualenvs. What other things are blicking you?

Miniconda drives me crazy and the one time I tried to use it, it changed my default python environment system-wide. I have been increasingly annoyed by Python's having so absurdly many fractional versions, and its scripts refusing to work unless you supply them with version N.nnnn.nnn exactly. (Yes, I am exaggerating.) Here is the acceptable pace to make incompatible versions of a programming language: no more than every 2 years.
The most popular webui has install scripts that set up everything quite painlessly: https://github.com/AUTOMATIC1111/stable-diffusion-webui
And according to that very GitHub, you have to downgrade Python to 3.10, or create a sandbox. I wish to do neither. For me, it's cleaner to create a whole virtual environment than a sandbox.
I'm old school. Programs should not requires system-level changes, period end of sentence. I miss static compilation.
