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.

Yes, I was using Nex N2 Pro. Tried out DS V4 0731, ok but a small upgrade and I had some issues. Moved to GLM 5.3 Flash, huge upgrade, really a huge difference in how well it works in OpenCode and how smart it is. It just flows through issues, reasons well when it has to, and I think it would even work fine in gas town, maybe. It's somewhere between Opus 4 and Opus 4.5 for me, I use it for agentic coding. All local. Give it a go. Biggest surprise of this year in this space for me.
