“Everything is shit. Believe me. We will do something better, just believe me.”

Jokes aside: - k8s is insane peace of software. A right tool for a big problem. Not for your toys. Yes, it is crazy difficult to setup and manage. Then what?

- cloud has bad and slow disk. BS. They have perfectly fast NVME.

Something else? That’s it.

Why I am so confident? I used to setup and manage kubernetes for 2 years. I have some experience. Do I use it more? Nope. Not a right tool for me. Ansible with some custom Linux tools fits better for Me.

I also build my own cloud. But if I say it less loud: hosting to host websites for https://playcode.io. Yea, it is hard and with a lot of compromises. Like networking, yes I want to communicate between vms in any region. Or disks and reliability. What about snapshots? And many bare metal renters gives only 1Gbt/s. Which is not fine. Or they ask way more for 10Gbt uplink. So it is easy to build some limited and unreliable shit or non scalable.
