Exactly. And I did a poor job of mentioning this in my previous message. But that perspective comes from trying to rely on Kompose to migrate my apps over to Kubernetes for me, and then falling utterly short in every aspect that makes Kubernetes inherently more powerful but also more complex than Swarm, such as in the domains of networking and storage. I ended up having to circle back to Kubernetes learning courses on Udemy, setting up a playground, making tons of mistakes, and accidentally becoming more proficient in Kubernetes than I had anticipated, just to get decent at deploying things to Kubernetes. And to be quite honest, I'm still learning about 6 years later. Lately less about storage and networking, and more with securing my workloads using securityContexts, runtime image scanners, etc etc. I'm at a point where I've written my own and helped contribute to Kubernetes operators, but I'm still learning how to effectively use all the tools Kubernetes gives you. So this took a bit of a tangent from the topic of Kompose, but it's all to basically say, "you'd be doing yourself a disservice to blindly rely on Kompose to get you into Kubernetes." In my opinion, of course.
