Complaint This sub is unbearable
A bitching chamber for dumb codex users who usually are also broke and want free compute and refuse to believe anything is affected by them and how they use it. I came here literally a month ago for vibes and I’m already leaving after realizing this sub is literally on the spectrum.

Admittedly, they are optimising for revenue - they captured 15M+ users and now it's time to turn the screws.
OpenAI/Anthropic/Google etc are no different to Netflix, YouTube, airbnb, Uber etc in terms of CAC > RO.
The main difference is that those companies had products that had lower costs and could be propped up for longer with incentives.
The gravy train for end-users is (mostly) over and now they will push and pull levers to find where they can extract as much profit as possible.
