I've been largely using Qwen3.5-122b at 6 bit quant locally for some c++/go/python dev lately because it is quite capable as long as I can give it pretty specific asks within the codebase and it will produce code that needs minimal massaging to fit into the project.
I do have a $20 claude sub I can fall back to for anything qwen struggles with, but with 3.5 I have been very pleased with the results.
