I was excellent at Siamese chess but awful at traditional and speed chess.
I think I mainly joined the chess club because it was also the perfect haven for where we played trading card games. The teacher was cool with us there as long as we agreed to occasionally dabble in chess as well.
I played a few weeks last summer and determined I can beat the chess.com 1300 bot but not the 1500 bot. My buddy discussed luring me into this thing during the pandemic "to up my game":

Holy crap! That thing was like $300 USD on Kickstarter way back when. It's over $550 CAD now???? (but a huge portion of this cost is the included app/subscription cost of the app).
