depends on what their base model is. Most abliterated models start off with an already quantized model, so depending on the type and level of quantization, you've already lost some capability. Plus, I think there are two types of abliteration, so ymmv.
My current go tos, in order are -

If you're set on trying out Qwen, I highlugh recomment orcarouter's models. Very well done and they start off with a good base model - well, actually now that I think about it, Qwen3.8 basically has one base model - the 27b one, right? So that's that.
I like the Gemma-4-E4B for speed for response, and HauhauCS has done a good job of abliterating the model appropriately. However, it's nothing compared to the A4B models, so if your hardware can take it, go for A4B over E4B always.
