It depends on what you want to do. I have 3 old/cheap desktop class boxes running Proxmox. I like to host my own stuff…literally. So I run my services in LXC containers.…including this Fedi instance. it runs really well. The container is basically hidden from me….I just login like i’s yet another Linux box. I also host a couple of blogs, my own password manager, media server, etc., all behind an nginx reverse proxy running … in an LXC container. I use them like really lightweight VMs. Probably not the typical use case but it works for me.
But if you aren’t doing stuff like that I can see why you may not like them or need them.

Why was the UN required to reboot Israel? We had multi-lateral agreements before the UN existed. The Brits have plenty of experience releasing territory from the former empire all over the world.
It’s useless because it can’t enforce anything...and I’m not saying it should be able to do so. It’s just a way for rich countries to launder money through poor countries to enrich a few folks under the guise of giving “legitimacy” to the desires of the countries with power. But when they can’t bribe enough people to support a resolution, the powerful counties just do what they want anyway and veto any resolution condemning their actions.

Loved loved loved Mr Robot. But yeah, the writing is fantastically bad. Every once in a while it looks like they are about to do something interesting…they immediately squash it. But, hey, you get a cringy communist lesbian musical number, so there’s that.
I wanted to like this show even with the red flags. But, damn, it’s so bad it’s getting a lower RT score than the Star Wars Christmas special from the 80s which was universally known as the worst Star Wars content ever. Well…I guess that’s groundbreaking

It’s not even worth a hate watch. It’s just bad on so many levels. Even if you try ignore the crazy amount of wokeness and just focus on the story…it’s still bad. The writing is atrocious…I mean high school bad. For something that was promoted as a murder mystery, which is actually a good idea, it isn‘t. I’m not sure the writers actually studied the genre of murder mystery in between lesbian studies classes. You get zero time to care about the characters at all before they are unceremoniously killed…and not even in an interesting or exciting way. So there’s zero investment by the audience. This is supposed to be story told from the perspective of the bad guys. Ok, but we’re half way through the series and we’ve seen the big bad for a total of about 1 min in 2 scenes. Not much time to tell that story, eh?
The acting (outside of Master Squid Games) is subpar at best. The one thing they did well for the $180M budget is the look and feel. It really does have the look and feel of a movie rather than a series…a really bad movie, but a high budget bad movie.

I hope to get a Ditto instance up soon. I’ve really liked Rebased and want to see how nostr is via Ditto. Stay tuned!
