Illustrator crashing on macOS

[#1]

Hi,

My Illustrator keeps crashing several times every singel day. It's also lagging quite a lot. I have a 15" MacBook Pro from last year.

Does anyone know if it's possible to fix in some way? Or is Adobe Illustrator just a crap software? Can't believe I'm paying for this...
