Community wonders if Alibaba has abandoned its Qwen 35B A3B small MoE line

A Reddit user asks whether Alibaba has abandoned its Qwen 35B A3B small MoE line: the Qwen 3.8 release shipped no new small MoE model, and Alibaba announced no small MoE models at the Apsara Conference.
The author acknowledges an announcement may still come but is losing hope for this budget-friendly small-model line. There is no official response; this is community observation and speculation.
