Mac only. Again.

Apple is great but this is OpenAI devs showing their disconnect from the mainstream. Its complacent at best, contemptuous at worst.

SamA or somebody really needs to give the product managers here a kick up the arse.

Hi! Romain here, I work on Codex at OpenAI. We totally hear you. The team actually built the app in Electron specifically so we can support Windows and Linux as well. We shipped macOS first, but Windows is coming very soon. Appreciate you calling this out. Stay tuned!

>>romain+Z9
Curios why electron not native?

Wouldn’t native give better performance and more system integration?

Going cross platform doesn’t sound the main reason (or I hope not). For a company that size, is it really hard to hire specialised small team?! It would be a good show case for their Codex too

>>Oras+td
They presumably use codex to build this. LLMs output is non-deterministic. Harder to keep the same logic across.

Would I love to see swiftui on macos, wpf/winui om windows, whatever qt hell it is on linux? Sure. But it is what it is.

I am glad the codex-cli is rust and native. Because claude code and opencode are not: react, solidjs and what have you for a tree layer.

Then again, if codex builds codex, let it cook and port if AI is great. Otherwise, it’s claim chowder
