Regarding Robot, I think that it's completely fine for what it is. I almost never interact with it, and instead just configure my server as I see fit over ssh. Hetzner's value proposition is extremely cheap no frills servers -- you're paying for the server, not the management interface. If you want management interfaces that do a lot of useful work, use a cloud.

Yup, which is why I said brutally functional and not broken.

I like brutally functional it just needs to get me to SSH and I'm good.
