I feel like Ornith 1.0 9b was the best coding model at that size (since Qwen has neglected that size). Maybe now Ling Tiny is better but I'm curious to try Ornith 1.5

My previous experience with finetunes is bad..
Today I tried Ornith-1.5-35B-A3B, and I'm quite positively surprised by it.. I compared it to both Qwen3.7-Flash and MiMo-V2.5 (via OpenRouter) in a few coding tasks and Ornith seems to be better than both! Thinks much more but the result definitely speaks for itself.
Hoping for Qwen3.8-35B soon 🤞

Have you tried Kat Coder? It's also a fine-tune of Qwen 35b and I've heard good things about it

Yeah I tried Kat Coder when it came out, I don't remember the exact issue I ran into but I identified a definite regression in my specific use cases compared to using vanilla. Ornith seems to be equivalent or better so far 👍
