LocalLLaMA leans Qwen for mixed Indonesian text
A LocalLLaMA user asked whether Qwen 3.5 or GPT-OSS-120B is the better fit for batch analysis of roughly 30,000 short English/Indonesian strings. The early replies lean toward Qwen, arguing GPT-OSS holds up better on monolingual inputs than on mixed-language text.
// ANALYSIS
This is useful practitioner signal, not a definitive benchmark: once multilingual edge cases and code-mixed prompts enter the picture, commenters still trust Qwen more than GPT-OSS.
- –Multiple replies explicitly warned against GPT-OSS for non-major-language work, with one commenter saying its non-English output deteriorates when English and another language are mixed in the same prompt
- –The most nuanced response said GPT-OSS can be good for smaller languages when the data stays monolingual and the task does not need much reasoning, but recommended Qwen or Gemma for mixed-language inputs
- –That distinction matters for real analytics pipelines, where short user-generated rows often contain slang, transliteration, and English loanwords rather than clean benchmark-style text
- –This is best read as field feedback from local-model users, not as a formal model ranking or a new release announcement
