Yesterday while playing with GLM 5.3 flash, got some good results. Model is laconic but does it's job fine. Tried a kind of similar task on Deepseek V4.1 Flash today, it went on long thinking rant and in the end couldn't solve the issue. Kind of disappointing to be honest!
Trying Union Alpha on @opencode go. Weird model, does not show thinking traces, works in the background a lot. Takes it own sweet time. Latest favourite is Deepseek V4.1 Flash which is blazing fast and works great for my usecases.
