I saw a lot of comparisons here on Reddit between Codex and Claude (Sol/Astra and Opus 5.5). They all suggested trying Claude. I stuck with Codex until today, when I had to correct Sol’s suggestion multiple times in a row. So today, I subscribed to Claude again. I left them six months ago when the usage limit was terrible. Okay, opening the Claude in CLI, working for a while, then… It’s awesome, man! It’s fast, clever, and finds every dependency in my project. The usage limit feels like it’s doubled at least. The craziest part is why I’m so happy: I worked with Codex on a project for five days, using three weekly limits (one natural and two banked), and the project was nowhere near complete. I thought it might be overengineered, but I asked Codex and he said it was necessary, not wasted effort. After my weekly limit had gone again… I subscribed to Claude. I asked him to do the same project as Codex and he finished it in 30 minutes (!) without any issues on the first run. No, I’m serious. Crazy. Claude said when I asked to compare the codex codebase and his codebase: ‘Five functions and one shared module, totalling around 650 lines. This replaces the old version of 27,000 lines and 84 tables.’ The old version was written by Codex. Both are code for the same purpose and funcionality. The documentation has also been shortened slightly: ‘The old billing section of the README, which was 2,458 lines long, has been replaced by a 45-line section.’ I cancelled my Codex subscription, even though Tibo reset it every day. Opus is way better. submitted by /u/Feriman22
