All of my smart lights (Ikea Tradfi and Monoprice RGB) by default fade on and fade off. I would like to find a way to get them to turn on or off instantly so I can create a flashing behavior. Has anyone else found a solution to this?

The fade up/down speed will always be part of the device and neither of these bulb types appear to have any parameter settings to adjust that speed, so it can’t be changed I’m afraid.
Anyway, you’ll be hard pressed to get WC / ST to send flashes faster than every 3 seconds and flashing multiple devices at the same time, via repeated mesh commands, just causes a popcorn effect so it all looks a bit wrong!!
With the Fibaro modules I use, they have adjustable fade speed but also an alarm function with built in flash… but you simply wont get that kind of complexity from a bog standard smart bulb :so
