Qwen3-Coder-Next seems to be perfect sized for coding. I tried the new and just found the verbosity not really useful for coding. But probably for more analytical tasks or writing docs.

Qwen3-coder-next is still my favorite local model. Qwen3.6-27b is probably a bit better, but it also runs much slower on my Strix Halo box. Hoping we see a Qwen3.6-coder soon!
