Because many people (including managers) take HN seriously and then go and try to implement or push for this being implemented because they read it on HN. Unfortunately they cannot go to HN when a outage explodes in their face, caused by an unknown problem in k8s. There is no clear value proposition for using k8s. It is trading time to figure out what would make the most sense for a project for black box complexity in most cases and that is a very bad deal. You pay the price once for the first one and all the time for the second one. If I do not comment here then you have a nice echo chamber that all fine and dandy with k8s and there is no downside at all using it. Btw. it is not only k8s and HN supposed to be a discussion site not a fanboy club of broken tech. I understand that the latter is much more appealing to many people.
