I hear this said, but never substantiated. Indeed, I think our big issue right now is making actual benchmarks relevant to our own workloads.

Due to US foreign policy, I quit claude yesterday and picked up minimax m2.1 We wrote a whole design spec for a project I’ve previously written a spec for with claude (but some changes to architecture this time, adjacent, not same).

My gut feel ? I prefer minimax m2.1 with open code to claude. Easiest boycot ever.

(I even picked the 10usd plan, it was fine for now).
