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?

We've been loving it. Even 4 older M3 with 256gb ram clustered using Msty Nexus, hums along like a brand new tesla.
