I wasted 80 hours and $800 setting up OpenClaw – so you don't have to

So far, all I see on OpenClaw is hype from AI fans promoting the use of OpenClaw to people but only AI fans posting about actually using it to do stuff, and the stuff it does seems to automate stuff I don't need automating.

It makes me think of Home Automation, fine if you are the sort of hobbyist who can be bothered to set it up and keep it running, but more trouble than it's worth for most people.
