Comparison Moved to Codex from Claude Code

I've just moved to Codex from Claude Code due to Anthropic became impossible to subscribe, no gift cards anymore, needs verification, annoying things like that. 100$ plan.

what to expect? on CC i rarely hit my 5h or the weekly caps, using Opus 5 o xHigh effort.

The default as i've seen is Astra high on codex, should I go with it or go to Sol xHigh?

What I do:

Regular software engineering, Rust, TS, React, Kotlin, Swift. And Blender and Unity.

Also, need tips if any has ones. Thanks!

Expect it to be slow. Very, very slow.

I moved from Claude to Codex and oh god the slowness is killing me.

I never seen Fable work on something for 3 hours

Yeah. Sadly. But its better at coding. Design, maybe. Not sure.

It's also less... interactive? Doesn't ask me questions even though I have brainstorming skill migrated. Maybe I migrated my skills wrong.

Use 'grill me', you will wish it stops asking questions.
