i resubbed to chatgpt - but just plus, because i still have the 62500 credits to get through 6.1 sol high seems okay, and barely denting the usage... i think thats more because its just slow af rather than being super efficient. but it's getting stuff done. slowly. had to rely on it all day yesterday before my claude sub reset today.

i cancelled my 拢200/month codex pro plan after paying for it for over a year. went from "can't imagine working without it" to fully cancelled in 3 weeks. however i still have the $2500 credits sitting there, that i can't currently use. do i swallow my pride and go pro 100 for 1 month to burn em off..? 6.1 to OAI's credit seems efficient, but then again, the speed is abysmal. wwyd?

lmao every time i rage tweet on here about apple review something happens within 2h
unfortunately it looks like my shipaton submission wont be counting .. app went into submission on 22 sept, with expedited review requested went INTO review on the 24th... stayed in review until the 28th (!!!) and was rejected because... they "could not find the in app purchases". which appear on the paywall. directly after the onboarding. video was attached, detailed info about how to use the app was attached, screen recording of me using it. but no, these retards, as usual, mashing their paws against the ipad like the chimpanzees at the beginning of 2001, are unable to review it properly

.@thsottiaux too bad it had to end like this, i'm on my final day of my pro sub but the nerfing of the pro 20 plan is bullshit, i know you agree with me even though you can never say it adios

im so pissed off about the codex decline, the fact that basically astra is the only usable model for tasks, the fact it takes FOREVER to do anything, and the fact that ive been operating ONE thread for around 12h on extra high (not even that complicated stuff) and its gone from 100% to 51% left on a 拢200 pro sub after using a banked reset and today they announce further nerfs way to fuck over your customers

6% left. i asked luna to come up with an explanation on how the token usage has impacted my usage in this reset window. i will be going back to using sol from now on, only delegating to astra for harder stuff

some wins so far this week: - first success with organic tiktok (low views, but got a weekly sub conversion out of it, +$46 MRR if they don't churn) - new app passed review and released, this one i've built entirely to market on tiktok and already have a bunch of formats ready to recreate - retired 2 apps from the store. one of them actually had a sub yesterday, which made me realise that I should remove it, it was an AI art generator still using stable diffusion tech... I'd rather have a smaller stable of Apps that I want to actually maintain

i waited 2 weeks for my app to go into review only to be auto rejected by an AI within 2 minutes applying the rule that "the most prominent price must be the one that the user actually pays, rather than an offer or a pro rated calculated amount" I present to you Apple Music:

managing the codex usage limit has become like trying not to bust too early you start off slow and controlled, taking it easy then you hit 13% and realise you鈥檙e going out anyway, so you might as well smash the life out of it

the default codex whisper transcription api speed was annoyingly slow - so i handed it off to my local machine for processing with a small whisperkit app. it's now quicker and as a bonus, added some nice states on the codex micro lightbar!
