GLM 5.3 Flash is borderline unusable for assistant chat, user says, despite good coding

A Reddit user reports that GLM 5.3 Flash is "borderline unusable" for assistant-style chat: no prompt tuning could shake its Claudespeak jargon and sentence structure. The model still performs fine for coding and tool use, but the author finds switching to Qwen3.8 27B or 3.6 35B with their Hermes assistant far easier to read.
