Which Local Models Sound Least Like Claude? Users Weigh In
Maasu · reddit · 2026-09-28
A user says he can't stand Claude's tone to the point of proxying all requests through other agents. Running Qwen3.8-27B and a heavily quantized DeepSeek V4 locally on a bosgame Strix Halo with 128GB unified RAM, he mostly interacts via SOL 5.6 or Luna Max orchestrating with a self-built setup similar to 'first mate'. He notes most local models he's tried — likely distilled from Anthropic models — still sound very Claude-like, and asks which models deviate most, calling this one of his last blockers before going fully local.
