DeepSeek accused of silent API changes as users slam versioning without bump

teortaxesTex · x · 2026-09-10

• User brucexueth complains DeepSeek is getting arrogant: business-tier models appear silently adjusted, and breaking changes ship without a version bump — like changing the API directly on 1.0 instead of releasing 2.0.
• He argues this reflects technician-heavy thinking that ignores user feedback.
• Quoter teortaxesTex pushes back, saying users who need a specific build like V4-Pro-0813 can just pin it rather than burning DeepSeek's HBM on low-value workloads.
• The comment section shows widespread similar complaints, highlighting an industry-wide API versioning controversy.
