I have concluded that most (perhaps all) cloud offerings of Kubernetes clusters are a prime example of "enshitification". You take something that should be easy and trivial, then add layers of complexity and vendor-specific components, slightly different configuration options, lots of plug-ins you probably won't ever need (but you need to know which ones you will, and how to decide which is which), and so on. The result is that, when you are finished, you made something that runs only on the specific provider you selected.
