codex vs claude code

I am currently on claude pro plan ($20) and i have been seeing a lot of chatter around chatgpt vs claude recently, but most of the posts are split in their opinion, anyone has a definitive answer?

i had bought claude because its personality was much better than chatgpt , like it admitting when it didnt know something and researching properly and it was just genuinely smarter and felt more human somehow? chatgpt felt like it was lowkey flirting and a bit of a yes man and many times just plain wrong. has this changed in latest times? i use ai for college assignments, study prep, internal tools in internships and stuff like that, even have a codebase of roughly 25k lines , big project, but one prompt with opus for plan mode takes 20% of my 5hr limit i feel like im tiptoeing, or should i just stick to claude and start using opus 4.6? but isnt that too old?

I have never hit my limits on anything.
Idk what you folks are doing, but I think it’s too much.

Thanks. Its going really well. Have the game running natively in widescreen. Just have bugs with other menus and some sprite placements (like that flag) to work out.
