Does anyone use uncensored models purely for coding?

Reddit r/LocalLLaMA News

Summary

A user questions whether uncensored AI models perform better for coding due to fewer content restrictions, seeking evidence and anecdotes from the community.

It sounds like a stupid question, and I do apologize if it is... but I've seen several people mention that coding models are better uncensored due to the fact that they don't have to constantly run prompts through the "is this okay" sort of checks. Is this hogwash? Is it true? And more importantly, does anyone have any sources to confirm it? Anecdotal evidence is fine too if you've tried and compared them. Personally, I have never bothered because I'm too worried the de-censoring would damage the weights. The juice never felt like it was worth the squeeze... but maybe I was wrong?
