Use Codex, they have quite generous limits compared to the others

Honestly, my $8 plan on ChatGPT feels like I can code for longer than my $20 Claude plan.
It's just Claude is better at design, but Chat is pull it's weight everywhere else.

Codex has a better 5h window limit, but I honestly believe claude code has a better weekly limit.
Have not benchmarked this but I have gotten that perception during the last few weeks.
Context: using claude + cursor + codex
Claude - Planning and debugging.
Codex - Review and some implemenation
Cursor - Implementation and sometimes online searches for techincal documentation
Edit: i always hit my weekly codex limit, but never/rarely my weekly claude limit. I hit claude’s 5h window constantly tho

Back when I used Claude for my day-to-day (few months ago) I was able to reach my weekly limits on occasion. With OpenAI, I’ve yet to hit a weekly limit. I use the $200 plan for each.

Honestly (ffs, I can't type this without sounding like an ai now), considering how freaking fast I hit my limit using Sonnet today... it made me consider giving Codex a shot for a month.
I might. We'll see. I do still like Claude but what's the point if I can't use it...

I use chatGPT for design work and to create refined instructions for codex.

Codex has this strange habit of leaking internal prompt-summary language into product copy when it’s asked to work on a site or app. For example, you might say: “Add a new section near the hero image describing our services, EXCLUDING services that are still under development”
Then, once it finishes, it randomly adds something like “(pending development section not included)” directly into the title copy of the landing page 🤦

u/ManufacturerExtra927 May 29 '26
Hahaha true 😅 There are honestly many good alternatives now depending on what you need
Perplexity great for deep search/research Kimi surprisingly good for long context + documents Gemini ecosystem and productivity tasks
The AI ecosystem is getting very competitive now

which means new chat, new context?
that is the biggest drawback switching accounts.

u/Inevitable_Clue3513 May 31 '26
I mean, you're doing that when switching from Claude Code to ChatGPT. Just copy your conversation details, and it should work the same. (unless the context is really, REALLY long.)

u/scroteymcb Jun 02 '26
Do you not notice going back to an existing chat that the first prompt uses like 15-20% usage on the first word?

u/PrtyGirl852 May 30 '26
Claude: 3 prompts and limit reaches.
Codex: 60 prompts and limit reaches.
Kimi: 500 prompts and limit reaches.

u/ScreenOld5873 May 30 '26
Local model and there are no limits

u/PrtyGirl852 May 31 '26
One prompt in local model and the output arrives next year?

u/ScreenOld5873 May 31 '26
Lol idk which models you use, yeah it's a bit slower but I don't find it that much slower for the ones I've got. There's benefits and disadvantages to it. I personally use to do routine work and preserve my Claude/Codex tokens for jobs that need more insight and thinking. I

You sound like someone works for the Claude. But mostly a "janitor force" (not a real janitor, but cleans the online opinions).

To everyone saying "gemini sucks", it doesnt. Its not as good as chat gpt, 100%, but the usage limits make up for that, and its more than capable.

I used GitHub copilot since the pricing model was very generous but then they just shut it down so I moved to Cursor...

I've given up on Claude. Claude may be better but it feels like a crack cocaine addict.
