These bursts of downtime are one of the reasons I end up with multiple smaller subscriptions between providers.

I'd just end up being really annoyed about the downtime if it lands in the middle of a working day.

Not sure if it’s just me but in Codex, GPT-5.6-Sol and IIRC older 5.5 models can stop dead in the track a couple times a day saying “model is at capacity” (paraphrasing). Then I wait a minute or two and ask it to continue and it’ll more often than not happily use the same model. These frequent mini “outages” are pretty annoying especially if one isn’t supervising. Claude has had long outages but I haven’t run into this kind of mini outages on a daily basis recently.
