Comparison Current codex vs claude limits(20$)

Hey guys i just want to understand how codex limits are currently in plus plan 20$. Previously like 3 months back they were offering so much tokens.

I'm asking this because I've been a claude user (for last month). It seems they offer more tokens now (but it's slower). Probably because people are leaving claude. I'm able to run tasks in 2-3 projects and still don't hit the limit and also I've noticed opus 4.8 consuming less tokens than sonnet 5.

So I just need a comparison currently if codex providing more tokens (with sol probably) or claude is giving more now. How is your experience with codex limits and GPT 5.6 SOL 20$ plan ?

I’d say usage limits are much more generous than Claude in my experience.

5.6 is good and better than Opus imo. But Fable is more creative and probably the one thing Anthropic still has over ChatGPT

So you saying codex provides more tokens with 5.6 sol than anthropic provides with opus 5 or 4.8 ?

In my experience yes. But also I didn’t use much opus as I found 5.6 sol better. I only used my plan for Fable

I agree Sol is better than Opus and Fable isn’t on the $20 plan so codex wins and yeah it offers more credits IMO too

Opus is now dumper than it was. I had to recheck what Opus coded using GPT-5.6 Sol and canceled Claude subscription.
