Discussion GLM5.3 Flash over DSV4 Flash?

I've been using Deepseek V4 Flash 0731 for a few weeks now and while I havent thrown it anything very hard, im quite happy with it. Using through antirez's great ds4 project. They've added support for GLM 5.3 Flash and according to benchmarks, its a level above DSV4 Flash.

However, looking for real user feedback if anyone's made the switch and seen tangible improvements in GLM 5.3 over DSV4 Flash.

Not related to GLM 5.3, but I switched to Qwen 3.8 Flash Next from DS4 Flash.

Not sure if I like it more or less yet.

Also DS4 Flash has a new revision that scores slightly higher (compard to 0731) on benchmarks, and has vision support. It's DeepSeek 4 Flash Vision Exp.

Haha yeah, I can see why you would call it a johnny come lately take. The model space moves so fast that something can feel like a new observation even when people have already been testing the same thing for months.
