Has anyone here tried GLP-1s like semaglutide for weight loss?

I've been considering it for a bit but every time I bring it up people think I'm taking the easy way out. Curious what the fitness community here thinks. I'm 27M and have been physically active for the last 9 years (weight training, running, swimming etc.) I'm not trying to avoid the hard work but recently life has been busy and I have some hormonal issues that aren't helping.

Does it have a place alongside training and diet, or is it just a shortcut? And for anyone who's been on it, what was the experience actually like?
