alt Hacker Newscan anyone compare the $200/mo codex usage limits with the $200/mo claude usage limits? It’s extremely difficult to get a feel for whether switching between the two is going to result in hitting limits more or less often, and it’s difficult to find discussion online about this.
In practice, if I buy $200/mo codex, can I basically run 3 codex instances simultaneously in tmux, like I can with claude code pro max, all day every day, without hitting limits?

I've only run into the codex $20 limit once with my hobby project. With my Claude ~$20 plan, I hit limits after about 3(!) rather trivial prompts to Opus :/
I haven't tried the $200 plans by I have Claude and Codex $20 and I feel like I get a lot more out of Codex before hitting the limits. My tracker certainly shows higher tokens for Codex. I've seen others say the same.
Codex limits are much more generous than claude.
I switch between both but codex has also been slightly better in terms of quality for me personally at least.
I almost never hit my $20 Codex limits, whereas I often hit my Claude limits.
you get more more from codex than claude any day. and its more reliable as well.
I personally like the 100 dollar one from claude, but the gpt4 pro can be very good
sure can! One of them stood up to the “Department of War” for favoring your rights, the other did not. Hope that helps!
Codex usage limits are definitely more generous. As for their strength, that's hard to say / personal taste
My own experience is that I get far far more usage (and better quality code, too) from codex. I downgrade my Claude Max to Claude Pro (the $20 plan) and now using codex with Pro plan exclusively for everything.
