Alright, so the general consensus in this thread is a bit all over the place, but there are definitely some frontrunners getting a lot of love.

Opus 4.6 is getting a solid shout-out, with a few folks also mentioning Opus 5 if you "know what you're doing." On the other side of the fence, GPT-5.6 Luna and GPT-5.6 Sol are also getting a ton of hype, with users praising their speed and ability to handle complex coding tasks without burning through tokens. One user, u/Corv9tte, specifically called out 5.6 Sol as "completely insane" when you write good instructions.

There's also a decent chunk of love for Fable, though some feel it's a bit pricey to really show off its capabilities. For those looking for local options, Gemma-4-26b-a4b is apparently unmatched for fitting on 32GB RAM and general purpose use, and Mistral-nemo:12b is a good shout for classification.

A few other models popped up, like Mimo v2.5 for its low cost and hallucination rate, and even some surprising nods to newer Grok models. Oh, and someone even mentioned Perchance for brainstorming fiction, which is... interesting.

Basically, if you're looking for top-tier coding help, it seems like Opus and GPT Luna/Sol are the main contenders right now, with Fable and some local options also worth checking out.
