User Dumps $400/Month Codex for One $200 Claude Plan and Gets More Done
fellingzonders · reddit · 2026-10-19
A two-year OpenAI/Codex power user says one $200 Claude plan now yields roughly twice the useful work of his two $200 OpenAI plans: cleaner code, fewer mistakes, reliable overnight runs. He also flags that OpenAI's own help page confirms legacy $200 Pro allowances last only through Oct 29, 2026 — same price, less usage. His verdict: reset announcements don't fix pricing, and he's not going back if Anthropic keeps this up.
