@kerodem this feature is still working.

Settings > Popout Window and change the _Popout Window Hotkey_ back to option + space

@xcdx80 Thanks. Couldn't find it at first.

Yes popout window hotkey does restore it partially, but now it'll be a "task" in codex. I want just a regular chat and probably most folks do as well.

Yes was considering re-opening for this. It chews through Codex credits which sucks. Window also doesn't stay layered over other windows aswell.
