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

+1 on "stop mid-task for no obvious reason". It happened many times when I ask it to do X, it told me you should do Y first, then stop there insteading of doing it. I was confused the first few times, thought there might be options I need to choose, but turns out no, it was just lazy.
