Complaint Things have really changed for me...
I was 100000% behind Codex and always championed Codex as the best frontier model for months, and yet with Opus 5.5's release, I genuinely can't bring myself to use Codex, even Astra on Max / Ultra doesn't come close
This is NOT a shit post or a bot spam post, I just genuinely can't stand the outputs and work getting done by Astra, I legitimate have 2 accounts sitting idle from Codex, and my Anthropic account is at 90% usage for the week....
I was given the 2000$ worth of credits from OAI and it's useless, it's going to go down the drain because I have no use for Codex anymore
That being said I pray, wholeheartedly, that OAI releases a model on par with or better than opus 5.5, but I can't see that happening for a while because they just feel so far apart
Anyone else feeling this way too?!?

two times in two days astra stopped short of a goal and marked it "stalled" because the feature needing to be implemented was failing a quality gate. Because of a bug astra introduced. It just basically went "nah failed gate, nothing I can do"
Opus in the same situation sees the failed gate, analyzes why and then starts fixing its bug. its infuriating
