Really!? Glm5.3 is my daily driver and I feel im having the most productive experience with agentic collaborations so far, by a lot. Using pi with tons of custom extensions, that to be fair I developed since making the jump off of codex and claude about 12 weeks ago. I primarily do not write code for a living. I do a lot of modeling and commercial analysis and a lot of math (related to differentiable simulation)
Same here. Moved from Opus to GLM 5.2 to 5.3 and I've been pretty happy with the result. Mainly, it doesn't hallucinate and convince itself of mistake so it's good at retrieving information or asking the user for it. Opus and Fable always state something, then try to "prove" it but end up convincing themselves of the wrong thing. Having subagents for retrieval and validation helped but were not enough.
I can't stand Claude's recent personality. It's snarky, uselessly verbose, and it disagrees all the time.
It will also fully ignore you if it has the slightest belief (not even a hint) that it knows what you want better than you and just start doing things.
I disagree

What HW are you running this on?
Full GLM-5.3 needs a beast of a system, but you can run GLM-5.3 Flash on the 2x Spark setup the GP comment mentioned. If benchmarks are anything to go by, Flash is like having a local Terra-tier coding model: https://artificialanalysis.ai/models/comparisons?compare=glm...
I’m also pretty happy with GLM 5.3 Flash (for coding, navigation and german language it sucks at). Incredible that you can run it on a fairly practical (seeming) home setup.
But here’s the standard question: At what speeds/other limiting factors?
