a question about previous updates

hello! as we all know, v4.1 flash is absolutely awful for creative writing, and also, the censorship became way higher. i’ve heard a few people say that it has happened before with previous model updates - not sure which, exactly, but i did hear people say that deepsek already became “dumber”, similarly to what is happening now, which was fixed later on with the addition of pro models. since i came to deepseek only this summer, my question is to the ones who have been using it for roleplay/creative writing for a long period of time - is that true? in that case, should i be waiting for the new pro version to kinda fix these issues?
