Helm is useful if you need your software to run in many different places, and is widely known. This is why you see so many projects offering Helm charts; because you see them, they are set up to run in many environments.

There is no reason to use it for your own software if you just have a single cluster.

Helms a pile of garbage but this isn’t really the fault of Helm. This is an issue with the chart or a failure to read the documentation of the chart.

People have got to stop just blindly running stuff off the internet.

At a previous employer, they’re building k8s clusters not for developers but for their infrastructure teams. In the past, where a vendor might have supplied an OVF file as the distributable product, they’re now providing Helm charts.
