i have glm and kimi. kimi was in most of the cases better and my replacement for claude when i run out of tokens. Now im finding myself using glm more then kimi. Its funny that glm vs kimi, is like codex vs claude. Where glm and codex are better for backend and kimi and claude more for frontend.

as kimi did a huge amount of claude distilation it seems to be somewhat based in data

Have you tried gemma4?

I'm curious how the bang for buck ratio works in comparison. My initial tests for coding tasks have been positive and I can run it at home. Bigger models I assume are still better on harder tasks.
