Strata update degrades Qwen3.8-Flash-Next model performance

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

While the update increased processing speed, it also made the model less capable, taking much longer to generate outputs and producing lower-quality, less detailed results. The user found that a previous version, v0.1.42.0, still functions adequately, suggesting a regression in the newer Strata release. AI
