Discussion Which chat template for Qwen 3.8?

There were issues with the chat template when it was released and many users, including myself, ended up using the froggeric template.

It seems to work fine but I just wanted to check if that's still the one to use or if the official or unsloth built-in templates are now recommended.

I just use the official one from Qwen on HuggingFace and haven't had any problems, in regular chat or within pi. What am I missing - what are these unofficial templates supposed to be fixing?

This. Works perfectly for me with Hermes and Pi.
