I ride in my friends Model Y Performance occasionally and the FSD thoroughly impresses me. I don't understand what the complaints are. It goes from start to end without any intervention the vast majority of the time. Any interventions still needed are pretty few and momentary at this point.

I don't plan on using Full Self Driving features until I have to in an emergency, or until they take the steering wheel away. BUT! Last week, I had visitors and they let their Model Y Tesla (2023, I think) do the driving for their entire trip - from driving for many hours to visit me, to driving around all the different sights where I live, and, I'm assuming, driving back home. It was all full self-driving. I got to sit in the passenger seat a few times. The thing drove beautifully. Parked without an issue, changed lanes, overtook other cars, etc... drove even better than the person at the wheel would have had the feature not been available!
