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!

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
It is hard because this product will likely be obsolete next year based on how quickly AI is changing and evolving. Speed is king when you're on the frontier

>>ativzz+Oz
Yes, exactly. "Just hire a small team and build native apps for another OS" is the recipe for taking a year to deliver instead of a month
