It doesn't take an expert sleuth to find things like https://www.hashicorp.com/blog/tags/case-study.html, so your "does anybody _actually_ use the HashiCorp stack" comes across pretty clearly as sniping.

Vendor-published case studies are pretty worthless IMO. I've seen plenty where the vendor was absolutely despised by anybody working for the client who had to deal with them.

Fair enough, I found parent's comment flippant because it suggests that HashiCorp's generous open source work is popular due to some hype conspiracy.
