I think k8s has a learning curve, absolutely, and there are absolutely cases where it can be unnecessary overhead. But I actually think those cases are pretty small. If you're running multiple apps, k8s is valuable. There is initial investment in learning the system, but its v-extensible, flexible, & portable. (Yes, every hyperscaler's implementation of k8s has its own nuance in certain places, but the core concept of k8s translates very well)

We must be terrible at implementation bc we have a had a prod outage and our DX is objectively worse. Its caused more problems and headaches for us.
