Holy shit you don't get anything for _free_ as a result of adopting Kubernetes dude. The cost is in fact quite high in many cases - you adopt Kubernetes and all of the associated idiosyncrasies, which can be a lot more than what you left behind. |

What costs are you talking about? Packaging your app in a container is already quite common so if you already do that all you need to do is replace your existing yaml with a slightly different yaml.
If you don't do that already, it's not really that difficult. Just copy-paste your your install script or rewrite your Ansible playbooks into a Dockerfile. Enjoy the free security boost as well.
What are the other costs? Maintaining something like Talos is actually less work than a normal Linux distro. You already hopefully have a git repo and CI for testing and QA, so adding a "build and push a container" step is a simple one-time change. What am I missing here?
