Users pile on OpenAI: buggy desktop app and DevDay flop push them to Claude
koltregaskes · x · 2026-11-14
KOL koltregaskes endorses the view that OpenAI faces internal difficulties, citing community consensus:
- DevDay was a disappointment and the turning point; followed by several resets and minor tweaks (mostly bug fixes) trying to bring the ChatGPT app to where Claude Code already is.
- The desktop app's promised efficiency improvements never arrive, the app remains painful, and the models don't get real work done.
- Opus 5.5 landing on $20 plans with generous limits was a shock.
- The author now has Claude manage OpenAI models and moved all projects to Claude, citing more generous weekly usage.
ChatGPT still holds the vast majority of market share, but "the top AI lab right now is Anthropic"—and if OpenAI hasn't hit the red alert button yet, it desperately needs to.
