Power user says GPT-6 Sol skips Chat: "$100/month and I feel tricked"
biarschal95 · reddit · 2026-09-23
A small SaaS owner who uses ChatGPT hundreds of times daily as a "second CEO brain" complains that GPT-6 Sol is only available in Work and Codex, not regular Chat. With 5.6 Sol degrading since the Astra rollout, he argues rebuilding months of chat context in Work isn't equivalent, and questions whether OpenAI is abandoning long-running chatbot use cases. He'd pay more for a reliable thinking-partner chat.
