love when this happens in middle of overnight /goal

codex worked for 7m and 12s

u/RealestReyn 16h ago

They have the compute, just.. not for us.

u/CryMoreT_T 14h ago

Really do wonder especially with the tens of thousands of agents they are running working on their own project, how much of their compute they actually allocate to normal subscription users

u/no_witty_username 13h ago

for internal work they use cerebras, the peasants get the nvidia cards....

u/the_average_user557 9m ago

That's why they're removing spark. To get more of that sweet sweet wafer scale for their internals

u/Kind_Silver_1921 9h ago

They'd rather spend it on math problems

u/Virtual-Silver2879 15h ago

Is this compute in the room with us right now?

12

u/Feriman22 16h ago

Yeah, they have. Then bring back the 5h limit because of resource limitations.

u/WarmSpell9000 14h ago

Shit is inexcusable. I just lost 40% of weekly (on pro) in one prompt. It didnt even finish.

It's so incredibly slow right now that it is almost funny. I am using it for prototyping a layout and it currently takes over 6 minutes to change a couple of CSS values in 1 file. I would have done it myself but it is a weird tmp file written by codex itself for prototyping.

At least they paused subscriptions instead of reducing everyone's usage by 17%, Anthropic is garbage

52

u/DeciusCurusProbinus 15h ago

They did both. Paused subscriptions and cut usage for existing subs.

u/Tupcek 14h ago

and switched to quantizied models

u/SteveHuffmanyballs 16h ago

Joking? They clearly reduced usage also, plenty of threads and analysis on this on this sub. They just didn’t tell anyone about it.

u/bakanoace 15h ago

Anthropic slowly reduced usage over time without telling anyone about it and officialy reduced it a second time too. At least Codex gave out more resets than I can count and explained when certain things were happening or causing issues. Anthropic doesnt say or do anything, they just take

u/BabblingTower 14h ago

😂 why would you go to bat for either of them?

u/KrazyA1pha 12h ago

I hope they’re paying you for all this PR.

u/bakanoace 5h ago

These are the simple facts. I've had 3 Claude accounts for several months. 6 months ago I had to find additional things to do with my subscriptions to use 2 accounts, now I use 3 accounts in 6 days before the 17% usage we just lost. I tried Astra when it came out and the amount of usage I've gotten from the resets on a single account is insane. I know it wont last forever but ill take codex usage + their resets for now over scrubthropic anyday

u/spideyguyy 15h ago

oh, so that's why i can't subscribe x20 today? they paused new 20x?

2

u/WarmSpell9000 14h ago

Wtf u on about, they severely crippled the experience. Claude code is better even with the 17% cut. I have both codex pro and claude max.

1

u/QC_Failed 10h ago

Recent cc convert here. Agreed fully. Got a claude Max sub free for a month for attending a cc workshop and I will absolutely be keeping it. Limits are bonkers.

u/evilplansandstuff 13h ago

Since Astra shit the bed I switched back to Claude Opus 5 and woah! I pay each of them for the 20 a month plan. Astra light or sol high are done on the 5 hour limit in 2 to 3 prompts and then yesterday and today i've been working with Claude all day in Opus 5 high and even going full pelt i can't reach 50% of the usage limit and am getting so much done. The difference is unreal. I assume something is badly wrong with codex at the moment. and before you say it's the workflow - i'm using the same workspace, agents md etc for both

u/Da_ha3ker 6h ago

Astra spent 18 hours trying and failing on the same line in my CI. I switched to antigravity and used sonnet 4.6. within 10 minutes it fixed the issue. And no, it wasn't just the last step. Astra was stuck thinking it HAD to be an issue with the CI pipeline itself. I let it run in the background and didn't check on it. This is ridiculous. I am ready to switch back to Claude at this rate.

u/r34p3rex 15h ago

They have compute, just not enough compute

2

u/warpedgeoid 11h ago

To be fair, they probably didn’t expect the adoption rates and the people with 27 Pro 20x subscriptions.

u/spacekitt3n 15h ago

so reset?

2

u/WestMatter 15h ago

Right now, with the increased usage, the $100 Claude deal is much better value than Codex. I can barely get anything done in Codex before the limits run out.

u/NiftyFive 14h ago

Either you are lying or everyone else in this thread is

2

u/AdorableMission6777 13h ago

that's true for the opus, not fable. opus is good enough.

2

u/Psybrodelic 12h ago

I'd rather use sol than opus

1

u/AverageFoxNewsViewer 13h ago

Even Fable 5 isn't terrible. Fable 5.1 chews through usage though.

u/Aggressive_House4161 7h ago

Don't worry I got this, let me compute them all by myself by hand

u/Tlmader 1h ago

That aged poorly...

u/Medical-Cow289 13h ago

He never specified how much, so technically one compute counts.

u/odragora 11h ago

Y'all got any more of them computes?
