everybody on your timeline is lying to you about OpenClaw
I started using it pretty much the first week it came out, and I was impressed and went deep into the rabbit hole its not the 24/7 AI agent that everyone is making it seem like, not even close if you need to build a website or code something, just use Claude Code or Codex directly. if you need to generate images, go straight to Nano Banana or Higgsfield. Using OpenClaw for these things is like taking a detour through 5 cities to get to the house next door the people telling you "just install OpenClaw and let it run your business" are either lying to you or havent actually used it for more than a demo it breaks constantly. it forgets context. it takes 10x longer than just using the right tool for the job. the experience right now is clunky and inefficient for most real workflows does that mean its useless? no. I still use it. I think once the context memory problem gets solved this thing is going to be legitimately powerful because the foundation is there but we're not there yet and pretending we are just so you can get engagement is doing a disservice to people who actually want to learn how to use AI properly use it. practice with it. get familiar with it early. but dont throw away the tools that actually work right now just because some guy told you OpenClaw replaces everything soon.
