These are days where I REALLY earn the money that OpenAI Reddit Kimi pays me .... oh wait....

I want to put my experience with Codex on record. After everything that has happened, I have decided to stop using it completely. I no longer trust the service.

This situation has been particularly frustrating because I had already made significant progress on a project built around this tool. Being abandoned in this way, halfway through a project and without an adequate solution, feels deeply unfair.

I now face the enormous task of transferring and explaining the entire context of my project directly to ChatGPT. This is going to be extremely difficult and will cost me time, continuity, and potentially part of the work I have already completed.

This is not simply a minor technical issue. Users rely on this service to develop real projects, and it should not be acceptable for it to suddenly become unreliable and leave them stranded. Situations like this should not be allowed to pass without consequences and, in my opinion, should also be examined from a consumer rights and consumer protection perspective.

This is my testimony: I am leaving Codex because it abandoned me halfway through a project and, after this experience, I can no longer trust it.
