How do you automate Helm charts installation?
I agree with Helm Operator, though it is in maintenance mode and on the cusp of replacement with a newer tool. I'm working with FluxCD org now, on the next generation of Helm Operator, check out Helm Controller, under the new Flux2 which is rapidly approaching 100% feature parity (in the sense of approaching a limit, it is for almost all use cases 100% feature parity already) with the stable Flux v1 + Helm Operator.

Why Helm never felt like it belonged
The combination of the tools I mention at the end would likely satisfy all of your needs. kustomize-controller, which is the part of flux that deploys your application, has the ability to check if the deployment's health check failed. I assume it also has the ability to rollback (or at least it easily might in the future). it also tracks the state of the applied objects so that it can delete objects that are not used anymore.
What are some alternatives?
When comparing helm-controller and kustomize-controller you can also consider the following projects:
helmsman - Helm Charts as Code
flux2 - Open and extensible continuous delivery solution for Kubernetes. Powered by GitOps Toolkit.
updatecli - A Declarative Dependency Management tool
terraform-provider-flux - Terraform and OpenTofu provider for bootstrapping Flux
helmfile - Deploy Kubernetes Helm Charts
source-controller - The GitOps Toolkit source management component
