For code development, this person settled on Qwen 3.6 rather than the newer Qwen 3.8, saying 3.8 suffers from extreme overthinking and often can't finish a task cleanly, getting stuck in verbose, looping self-review regardless of how it's configured. They describe themselves as neutral on local models generally, but say it's getting harder to keep pace with each new generation as hardware and memory prices keep climbing.
