I still don't understand how/why this is serverless. It is FaaS, but not serverless FaaS

It's a platform for hosting serverless functions. It lets you deploy your own lambda, on kubernetes/swarm

Are there any other "Kubernetes-As-A-Service" providers other than GCP?

I think AWS has competing solutions, but I am not sure about the current state of affairs.

Amazon has a Elastic Beanstalk and some other container related tooling. Microsoft has Azure Container Services (ACS), and under that, a Kubernetes as a Service managed service abbreviated AKS.

AWS's managed Docker cluster orchestration service is ECS.

There's Azure Kontainer Service (AKS) in public preview.

Yeah, but I still have to maintain the containers and possibly the underlying machines as well as the OpenFaaS platform itself. With this or any other Serverless platform, I only care about the Function code.
