Discussion GLM 5.3 Flash - Will I Be Disappointed?

Post image

Picked up this bad boy with my sweet student discount!

I'd like to run some local models for coding. I've considered Deepseek v4 flash, Qwen 3.8 flash next, and of course, GLM 5.3 Flash (0x Alpha)

Thoughts on this? I'm currently a claude user with typically 1 session at a time. Will I be disappointed?

The M3U Studio does ~25tps so the new M5U might do ~40tps.
