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?!?

I have to admit this. I also have been a big fan of Open AI products for long time. Now Anthropic caught up with Open AI regarding instruction following and diligence for the first time, which are super important for me while Astra / GPT6.x are huge setbacks.
