I thought the same for a long time, borderline unusable with loops/bizarre decisions compared to Claude Code and later Codex.

But I picked it up again about a month ago and I have been quite impressed. Haven’t hit any of those frustrating QoL issues yet it was famous for and I’ve been using it a few hours a day.

Maybe it will let me down sooner or later but so far it has been working really well for me and is pretty snappy with the auto model selection.

After cancelling my Claude Pro plan months ago due to Anthropic enshittification I’ve been nervous relying solely on Codex in case they do the same, so I’ve been glad to have it available on my Google One plan.
