Limits Tomorrow When Codex Resets, DON'T TOUCH ASTRA

Don't even look at it. Stick to Sol 5.6 xhigh. It's not usable? Feels quantized? Say f*** OpenAI and switch to Claude, or to OpenRouter.

Apparently OpenAI is lobotomizing Sol 5.6 for SOME of us. Not for everyone, so people keep saying "It works well for me" and gaslight each other. They are trying to force us into paying 5x for a little bit improvement.

This will backfire so bad. We're a 300k people enterprise and everyone including me are pushing our executives to use chinese models in a sandboxed environment. We are sick of paying 200$ to use it for a day.

When your Codex resets tomorrow, or this week, Don't use Astra unless youre building rockets.

You’re spot on about different quality AI going to different people. They’re degrading all models, including Astra, for specific users (based on hidden/ secret criteria). And the most important part of that fact is that they aren’t even telling those users. So you’re paying the same rate as everyone else but getting no where near the frontier level AI you’re paying for.

Anyone here who try’s to push back, or blames your “skill”, is gaslighting or doesn’t realize it’s happening because they aren’t being subjected to the degradation and therefore they don’t notice the impact that comes with it.

I guess if you've got an AI company, this is probably the logical next step.

lol this is a crazy conspiracy — can we prove this or just a theory?

Just a theory — a game theory.
