FWIW Codex TUI is written (in large part) in Rust and is way less buggy, and a lot faster. When I was a regular Claude Code user I'd routinely get bizarre "scroll everything since the beginning of time in one massive flash on every update" bugs ... for months. Like, just there from the time I started using it in June '25 or so until I quit in March.

I prefer it over opencode, which is my other option I use with my Codex sub

That particular bug seems to be gone. I'm using my own Ruby terminal, and it's more than fast enough for normal stuff, but it made that bug 10x more painful so I am particularly sensitive to it... Not seen it at all recently.

Good to hear. Over a slow ssh connection it made me want to tear my hear out

Yeah, I resorted to putting every Claude session in tmux so I could just kill the terminal, but it was really painful.
