I’ve been using Claude Code every single day for months. Built my entire dev tools around it. I love how it thinks. Opus models hit my intent better than anything else. And the ecosystem. Plugins, skills, MCPs. Claude Code made moves that changed the entire dev coding space. Every other tool is just copying what Anthropic did. But I need to stop using it. When you’re a very heavy user, every slow second compounds. Not just time. Energy. Momentum. Weeks of that and you feel it. It’s buggy. Slow. Sometimes very dumb. And actual updates feel like they make it dumber for some reason. I’m partially bounced now. I use both Codex and Claude Code. Faster. Smoother. Way cheaper. Not even close on price. I still think Claude Code is home. But maybe that’s just familiarity. It’s a matter of time. Because right now, it’s not good. Anthropic just raised $30 billion. I hope that money goes into what actually matters. Speed. Stability. The daily experience of using the thing. This isn’t a goodbye post. But it could be. Are you feeling the same thing? Or is it just me? submitted by /u/MrCheeta
