I dropped Claude Code months ago. I'm just an amateur who plays around with bringing screens in from Figma and turning them into websites so I can get practice with AI tooling, but their limits were absurdly low on the $20 plan. Codex, for now, is much better in terms of daily limits.

The amount of tokens you get on Codex for $20/mo compared to Claude Code is indeed insane.

And probably unsustainable. OpenAI desperately needs to catch up so they’ll throw yet more cash at it, while Anthropic are market leaders in this particular space.

It probably is unsustainable, but until they change it I'm sticking with Codex.

The way you all talk about tokens and costs makes you sound like a holocaust pencil pusher counting the dead by how many gold fillings they had in their teeth.

These are highly irreputable companies led by sociopaths.

Consider stopping giving them any money at all.

I suspect GPT-5 models are sparser and/or smaller than Opus which is why they can afford to give away so much usage.

I sound like a broken recorded in these threads but the $20 dollar Google AI Pro is unbelievable good value. You get more Claude tokens in antigravity than you get with the pro subscription from anthropic AND you can share it with your family for free and they also get the same amount of tokens. That's 5x the tokens for just $20.

That was indeed the case until last week. AGY right now hits the limits super fast on the Pro plan. I’ve had to start using Gemini CLI all the time, and am now considering what’s next.

It feels like we’ve sped-run the golden age of Claude and AGY.
