Isn't the entire purpose of this threat that Kubernetes is a big solution made for big problems and smaller problems might not need that big of a solution?

The comment was in response to a question I asked about "do I really need something as big as Kubernetes". Not sure why people are picking apart this answer when it seems to answer my question quite well.

The purpose of this threads, and threads like it, is they turn into a "nobody needs kubernetes" when xyz exists, and they completely ignore the fact that kubernetes is not meant for small shops.

I didn't see yours was in the context of a small cluster, since I was reading the whole thread, so I apologize. It seems that every single comment is roughly the same as yours, though, and they act as if anyone who chose kubernetes/openshift is clearly an idiot. There's a reason big clusters use it, but the people running the large clusters don't come on HN to comment. Look at the openai blog, for example.

There's a reason the community is so large. There's a reason people are developing tons of tools around it.

It's not because they're stupid.
