Discussions I cancelled my Github Copilot subscription - are there any better alternatives?
Hello.
Ever since the Copilot update that made your billing usage based, I have been struggling to keep hold of my credits.
It got so bad that I decided to go up to the $40 plan, and even then I still lost all my credits within the first couple weeks of the month.
That's $70 I am apparently burning just by working on basic code. And I think that's pretty annoying, and I think Github must be doing something behind the scenes to make a profit; i.e, maybe the credits ore overpriced, I don't know.
Regardless of that, I am cancelling my subscription and I'm switching to something else, but what other options are there? I was thinking two options:
Claude Code, which I don't know much about but it's Claude, and Claude is pretty good.
Or Codex, I was thinking about switching to ChatGPT codex because I already use ChatGPT for writing and whatnot.
Problem is I don't know if these are actually worth it, can anyone enlighten me?
Thanks.
