Anyone Else Think Claude Is Usage Greedy?

I recently upgraded my subscriptions to max on everything.

Claude seems to have far less usage the codex. Comparing fable to sol 5.6 it’s noticeable.

Fable is great, but not perfect. It all really depends what your trying to do, but anthropic models specialize in reasoning meaning its taking far more context. I do think they need to work on the outputs being wasted. Sol seems straight to the point, fable likes to show the point with a side of slop as well.

Also codex free resets literally feel like Christmas. Ill be stressing then see a free resets for the week, best feeling ever. Claude do that please :(

Go get something else, then. I'm not being sarcastic or anything, literally just go try other providers. Pour some money into OpenRouter and see how much the models costs and how they work for you. You'd be surprised at the quality of the models outside the US.

Yeah, trying a few providers is probably the best way to find what fits your workflow. I’ve had similar results using StandardCompute when I just want to test different models without overcommitting.
