User Feedback: Qwen3.8 Overthinks and Misses the Point on Tasks
WhatererBlah555 · reddit · 2026-08-15
A user testing Qwen3.8 27B reports dissatisfaction, citing excessive "thinking" before starting the actual task and a tendency to overreach the assigned scope. This consumes time and context before real work begins. While Q3.6 had similar traits, it was more manageable, whereas Q3.8 feels out of control.
