| I created this chart with recent open models from last 6 months. Few might be older than that possibly. Included only latest versions(Ex: Only Kimi-K2.6, no Kimi-K2.5 & Kimi-K2. Also only GLM-5.1 & GLM-4.7, no GLM-4.6 & GLM-4.5). I couldn't add some models like Ling-2.5-1T, Ring-2.5-1T, Omnicoder. Also I didn't add small models(except Qwen3.5-9B/4B & Gemma-4-E4B) as the graph is too crowdy already. Sorry if I missed any recent models. Possibly best 6 months for Local LLMs?!? Still this month has more than a week, so we could get few more models. So what do you think about overall graph? Underrated & Overlooked models? [link] [comments] |

Key Points
- The post presents a chart of “recent” open-source LLM models released over the last six months from Nov 2025 to Apr 2026, with some entries possibly older than intended.
- It includes only the latest versions of certain model families (e.g., only Kimi-K2.6 and GLM-5.1), explicitly excluding older minor releases.
- The author notes omissions due to space and difficulty adding some models, such as certain listed variants and smaller models to avoid making the chart too crowded.
- The post raises questions to the community about whether the period is the best six months for local LLMs and which models might be underrated or overlooked overall.
