Qwen3-235B-A22B-Instruct and Minimax-M1

Not sure why they are sleeping on Qwen3 Coder. It looks similar in quality to K2 (depending, in some tests I saw K2 rather bomb), faster, less issues with inference providers. Also K2 in Cursor has fairly often issues with tool calls, and even breaking like:

I am not really a fan of this “merging” specific posts, eg “Implement Qwen3-Coder” in favor of post “Qwen3-235B-A22B-Instruct and Minimax-M1”. Those are entirely different models. Is this just another cheap attempt to hide/suppress/silence/make forum more “positive”?

Just saw a bench, real use cases (from my understanding non-trivial codebases and asking agentic IDEs/CLIs to fulfill tasks, even whole features) and Qwen3 Coder has ranked rather good.
