I use Codex regularly and Claude is shit in comparison, from its constant "Oops you're right!!" backtracking to its crap Electron app (if their AI is so good why can't they make a fucking native app for each OS?)
Hell right freakin now I asked it to implement something and got a weird "Something went wrong" API error
I use both, read what I need to read and fix small issues myself. Both Agents are pure magic and none of their issues warrant a tantrum on a public forum.

I don't get frustrated if a problem is genuinely difficult to solve and the product creator is trying their best,
I get frustrated when a problem has been solved by other similar products but a specific creator or provider refuses to follow suit and fix their shit.
Claude's Electron app vs. Codex's native app is one such example right off the first impression of both products.
"There's no such thing as astroturfing." ok

"Shit", "Crap", "Fucking", "Hell", "Freaking".
Maybe you're too easily frustrated. Or your existing code reads like your comments.
Maybe you haven't tried any other AI product with an actual preexisting project. Or blindly trust every BS Claude feeds you.
I haven't had any such frustrations with Codex
Claude is specially annoying because of their submarining and people thinking it's the best

Codex desktop is Electron too. What app are you talking about?
