Users Complain About Cluttered ChatGPT Work Mode UI
Big-Accident1958 · reddit · 2026-07-10
Reddit users are heavily criticizing the confusing design logic of the new ChatGPT UI, especially the Work mode. Main complaints include baffling restrictions on pairing models with "effort levels" (like inconsistent options for the 5.5 model across modes) and a lack of customization.
The author suggests simplifying the design by letting users freely combine "model," "effort level," and "speed." They argue there's no need to force a distinction between Chat and Work modes; simply adding a project/plugin dropdown would suffice.
