alt Hacker NewsLaguna S 2.1 is really great too, in the "preview" release they've done so far at least. Still pending some reasoning-looping, but besides that, it's a really strong model to run within 96GB VRAM with the NVFP4 variants, and it's really good at coding (specifically).

No it doesn't follow instructions and is substantially slower than ds4.

Yeah I think it got bad press because the chat templates (or something?) were messed up on first release, but I've been using a quant of it and it's a powerhouse, better than qwen 3.6 27b for local on a 3090, which is saying a lot.
There was an obvious problem in the original release, they re issued it after like a week with the reasoning looping supposedly fixed.
