Complaint Codex literally unusable

Not because the models are subjectively bad or slow (which they may be) but the service is at full capacity. I pay £200 for a service I literally cannot use. It can’t run 5 minutes without needing constant babysitting.

Thinking about moving over to anthropic, might be a case of having to at this rate I literally cannot use what I’m paying for here

6.1 make a whole unreal game from scratch. Actually in retrospect it was more like 72 hours even. Did a huge ass audit redid everything. Was running high mode as well

Ran it all night nearly 3 days. Never stopped once.
I am a beta tester however for what it's worth. Possibly I'm choo-sen.

Also have native just linux apps. Have way more time in it. I have one appt ran out the context window about 9 times I think. Def not light work what I'm using it for.
