OpenAI changes how the ChatGPT and Codex desktop apps store data, expected to use about 60% less disk

一句重點:The change affects the state data the desktop apps keep locally, and it was prompted by power users reporting they were running out of disk space.

@thsottiaux, whose bio reads "Codex & ChatGPT @OpenAI", said this is day 9 of a series of updates: optimizations to how the desktop app stores state on disk, which should cut disk usage by about 60%. It was called a "small ship", shipped because of enough feedback about power users running out of disk space. @TokenGremlin relayed the same update and found it useful for people who keep hitting disk limits. @buildwithrajath questioned whether it's more of a bug fix, since it adds no extra quota or capabilities.
