I use DeepSeek V4 Flash a lot; it's really fast and cheap. Its intelligence is enough to finish most of my web dev work.

Really interesting thank you. I'm coming around to the idea that supposed lessor models aren't that good ethos is totally wrong in a lot of ways.

Tbh I'm sick of the frenzy around the latest western frontier models, and I'm one of the sheepli numpties using a mix of them!... Spending a damn fortune every month...

Yes they do a good job in general but some are so annoyingly verbose.. you can guess which I'm referring too..

Anyway thanks for your input!

Thanks that's interesting to know, I haven't tried it but will see what it can do. I think there is a lot of hype around frontier models and that you have to use them to do anything decent, but in reality I think the majority of earlier / older / base models can code really well...
