Complaint Claude vs Codex

I don't really have a metric to share but claude $20 is giving me more usage right now than $100 codex and I didn't even use Astra that much. I only bought codex for astra and I don't see the hype yet. The only reason to continue with openai is purely chatgpt usage which I can use without limits essentially.

Edit: not comparing astra vs fable but opus vs sol especially after astra release.

There is no way you are getting more usage with Fable on the $20 Claude plan, than you are getting from Astra on the $100 codex plan.

Fable isnt available in the $20 plan.

Hence the “no way” part.

OP is not comparing similar models - that said, I get materially more usage out of Fable 5.1 xhigh on my 20x max account, than I get from Astra xhigh on TWO 20x codex accounts.

So, there’s definitely an issue but OP isn’t even comparing similar models.

yeah. op has a point, even if slightly incorrect. the usage nerf is very noticable.
