Any idea why it doesn’t seem as good as the version you get on the deepseek website?

See

- [Cursor NOT using the FULL POWER of DeepSeek R1?](https://forum.cursor.com/t/cursor-not-using-the-full-power-of-deepseek-r1/45869)
- [Deepseek-R1 in Cursor seems degraded compared to chat.deepseek.com](https://forum.cursor.com/t/deepseek-r1-in-cursor-seems-degraded-compared-to-chat-deepseek-com/46051)

Is the explanation here most likely correct?

- [Deepseek-R1 in Cursor seems degraded compared to chat.deepseek.com - #7 by normalnormie](https://forum.cursor.com/t/deepseek-r1-in-cursor-seems-degraded-compared-to-chat-deepseek-com/46051/7)
