New mistral 3.2 is not bad, might be honeymoon period but I found it tolerable with the v3-tekken preset. If you're desperate for variety you could try GLM4 (not the reasoning one)
Give up on gemma3, I knew it's tempting because it's so smart and its prose is very refreshing at first. But it's unsalvageable because its instincts on how to continue an RP are so horrible.
