I don't know if I think Helm is garbage but I feel like it's almost always more trouble than its worth. Most charts can be boiled down to just a couple resources and instead of sifting through its weirdo templates you might as well just look at the actual resource configs. It's almost always just a single Deployment or similar + RBAC.
I've actually been using Terraform to manage Kubernetes resources at my latest job, along with literally everything else. I don't even use alb-ingress-controller or external-dns or any of that. I just have Terraform make target groups from the service resources. It breaks a lot less.
