Isn't it more limited though, e.g. with auto-scaling not available for nodes, but only for pods?

DigitalOcean now has a node auto-scaling as well [1]. It was released very recently. It was not available in the first general release.

Yes, it is absolutely more limited. That, single-IP load balancers, and no direct equivalent of VPCs spring to mind as the biggest differences. AWS still makes a lot of sense in a lot of cases. It is worth noting DO has a decent API, so if wouldn't be _that_ hard to implement autoscaling yourself if you needed it.
