GLM 5.3 Flash v Tencent Hy3

So, thanks to all who responded to my sycophancy thread. After testing things out, a clear duo of winners has emerged - GLM 5.3 Flash (which is somehow less sycophantic than full GLM 5.3 in my smoke tests) and Tencent Hy3 (surfaced via https://github.com/lechmazur/sycophancy ).

In my smoke tests Hy3 has a tighter style but tends to lose some detail (less so when given search), GLM 5.3 Flash is more exact but the style is more generic. In published benchmarks GLM 5.3 Flash is the clear winner, but we all know such benchmarks are not always a great source.

So I would very much appreciate opinions from people who tried both. My aims include agentic loops, coding, and gneeral assistant plus creative writing. Which of the two is better for eahc of these tasks, or for anything else you tried them too?
