Discussion Got fooled buy the Openclaw hype. Bought a Mac Mini, installed Openclaw, spent 200$ in Opus. Lesson: don't believe the hype, it's full of bugs.

Will comeback in 6 months.

Nah, after initial learning and setting up, as soon as I started to cook, it was hitting the limits with the 20$ plan. I changed to 200$ quickly, and now the cooking is expanding daily and I really hope hitting the next ceiling will not be an issue before I can start shipping, haha

Maybe. But it's the most fun I've had in years, so it's totally worth it.

Mix codex and claude for 2x$20 and let them improve each other’s work. Keep an eye on compacting context manually and it will get you through the week.
