Ask HN: Is Anybody Using Codex?
I read HN daily and posts about features or curious behavior of Claude Code are very common. I see no posts about OpenAI Codex. I was under the impression that it also is a very popular tool and virtually as powerful as Claude Code. Where am I wrong? Is Codex not popular? Is it significantly worse than Claude Code? Is it being "cancelled" because of OpenAI cooperating with the US Department of War? 2 comments on Hacker News.
