ChatGPT Mac Update Becomes Codex Style
LowResChaos · reddit · 2026-07-13
A user accidentally updated ChatGPT's Mac app and found the new app resembles a Codex application:
- Normal chat is no longer the main focus, entry buried deep
- Projects for managing/isolating chats seem gone, forcing return to web
- Core complaint: OpenAI clearly pivots product toward coding scenarios, ignoring non-programming users
The post essentially vents about the macOS client redesign being unfriendly to everyday chat users.
