I've been using GLM pretty much exclusively last 6-8 months. I have access to Anthropic and OpenAI models and others. I always keep returning to GLM, it isn't the best, sometimes I would go to Codex to help it, but overall, especially with Turbo, it is everyday good model.

Turbo makes a huge difference in everyday use because it saves you time and you are not in the mood always to wait endlessly.

Very interesting. What sort of tasks do you use it for, and what client do you use?

When you want to use a custom client and a coding plan to control costs (daily use, a few hundred USD/m budget), this is the landscape:

- Anthropic/Google: Deterring custom clients actively

- OpenAI: Grey area.

- Z.ai: Technically only allows clients in their (large) approved list of clients. Likely won't actively ban custom clients.

- Moonshot: Seem to allow custom clients?

- DeepSeek/Alibaba: No coding plans at this time
