Retrying Openclaw... am I doing it wrong?

I shifted from OpenClaw to Hermes and then started just using Codex directly. With the launch of OpenClaw 2.0 I thought I'd give it another try, especially since it has that nice integration with Codex and Session continuity. However, it still so unstable for me. This is a fresh brand new family stock setup. The only significant change I made is to use Hindsight for memory. The desktop app crashes frequently and I have to kill and restart it on a Mac. The fact they didn't even think to prioritize rendering markdown so you can actually understand the output of an agent's plan seems like more than a lack of polish and a more fundamental lack of prioritization of usability.... Or maybe I'm just doing it wrong. I have one foot out the door... but thought I ask the community for some tips first.
