I also use DeepSeek R1 as a daily driver. Combined with Qwen3 when I need better tool usage.

Now that both Google and Claude are out, I expect to see DeepSeek R2 released very soon. It would be funny to watch an actual open source model getting close to the commercial competition.

Have you compared R1 with V3-0324?

		R1 takes more time to answer, but I don't remember a single case where I actually compared answers where R1 was worse than pure V3. And I don't even have to wait that long. If I watch the thinking, I can spot quickly it misunderstood me and rephrase the question without even waiting for the full response.
