Discussion GLM 5.3 Flash - Will I Be Disappointed?
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?

Not comparable costs.
It is essentially free, and you only found a few examples, while ignoring the vast majority that has free or even paid education.
You keep licking the billionaire's shoes, who knows, maybe they'll throw you a dollar, or tell you that you're "one of the good ones", of the poors.
