I have personally been a heavy claude code user since it launched, I have a claude subscription at home and my employer pays for a claude account at work.

Until the launch of Fable I'd been very happy with claude code besides the outages where it could be offline for hours.

When Fable released it was a good step up from using Opus.

When it was taken away and then reinstated under some weird billing and vague notion of how it would be available in the long run, I noticed the model itself was worse than the brief time it was up before the US gov shut it down.

Now I'm evaluating Codex at home for personal use. I may switch to using chatGPT at home and whatever work provides (which is currently Claude).

Codex and 5.6 Sol seem just as good as Opus and Fable right now, but I only have 1-2 weeks testing.

Keeping the flagship models in the basic subscription is the main driver for me evaluating chatGPT again, I hadn't really used it since about GPT4 (I missed all of the O-models like o1, o3) and I moved to Claude when it was clearly better.

The ergonomics of claude skills are better than codex's agent skills imo.

ChatGPT and codex have more generous usage limits it seems.
