openclaw is a waste of time.. (be honest) Do you guys remember when I posted that video of me setting up openclaw Like, it was kind of difficult to figure out. And I'm a software engineer. I'd have so many terminals open to figure out what was going on, and there were just so many errors along the way. Why am I debugging my debugger? I found something called Mule Run, and I just typed in one sentence. And mind you, that's what I was trying to use openclaw to do. I was trying to get it to develop for me. There's no repo, no setup, nothing. It just starts building. Front end, the back end, the UI. It's all done. And this isn't like copilot or anything. It's like a dedicated computer that's always on 24/7. But let's compare. Openclaw is like local setup. It takes up so many tokens, and it sometimes crashes. Where a mule run has no installation, runs on the cloud, and it just works. So, guys, let's stop raising lobsters and start raising mules.
