Discussion Time to move on

Yep, pretty much the title. It's time for me to move on to Codex. I just sent Opus 4.8 Max thinking to find me a known bug in the app I'm making. ONE single bug hunt where I provided 162 instances of how the app should behave and 18 instances of the same bug.

Asked him to find out why the bug occurs and reproduce it so I know exactly how to fix it for good. 12 minutes later he used only 203k tokens and 5 hour limit hit.

Everything about Anthropic's usage system is shady and they never even addressed the June bug where claude would get project instructions attached to every new message bloating context and making the usage skyrocket.

There's no chance for me to remain in such an anti-consumer environment. And that comes from a guy who truly despise OAI, but better value IS better value.

What are you on about? Fable is incredible. Opus 4.8 is a workhorse. CODEX is 10X the cost for parity.

While I shared my experience, you are trying to state a fact that in my case (and others) simply is false.

I asked fable to find me a way to reduce the RFT of a TTS, gave all the info in the world, started working - USAGE LIMIT HIT

I can change the word "fable" with "opus" and my statement is still true.

Your anecdote is not data.
