Interesting, didn’t know that about AWS. In more familiar with the Google cloud version of VPC. Seems the DO implementation is more like the AWS version

For what it's worth VPC ranges are allowed to overlap in GCP -- and do by default -- but then you aren't able to peer them. I kind of prefer the DO/AWS constraint.
Agreed, having paid the cost of a few VPC moves to separate ranges on AWS in order to gain peering.
No such constraint in AWS.
I misremembered. Thanks for the clarification.
Heh, no worries -- mostly the same deal there:

- You can do it, but it's probably not a great idea if you need to do VPC peering (or attach multiple VPCs to one VM, see next).

- Does actually work, but it does not work if the VPCs you're trying to attach to a single VM have overlapping CIDRs.

- Same deal, almost. You cannot add or remove network interfaces from an existing VM.
