Since I bought early this year out of curiosity the z.AI pro plan for $30 / month its mainly glm-5.2. I prefer it over 5.3 and 5.3-flash because it feels more verbose and answers questions more detailed, where the newer ones feel to me benchmaxxed.

Sometimes I try other models but they always feel less concise and tend to not as strictly respect the instructions. Maybe the the top frontier models from openai / anthropic would not feel under this category but they are way to expensive on openrouter compared to my coding plan.

Qwen3.8-27B.

The knowledge and accuracy for its size is mind-boggling, especially for something I can run on my existing desktop from 2022, away from prying eyes.
