Google admits Kubernetes container tech is too complex

Yes, k8s is not built for solo outfits and small projects.

In places with 10+ developers and 10+ services on a single cluster it works surprisingly well from the user (developer) side.

Hmm, I guess I should shut down my business then since I'm a solo founder using k8s exclusively for my hosting for 3+ years...

Definitely a learning curve but honestly not bad if you like ops. Absolutely possible and beneficial for any size team. As always, it depends on what your goals are and how you want to use k8s.

In my opinion (and I'm biased as I work on GKE Autopilot), GKE is viable for a 1 developer project, especially with Autopilot mode (I have my own hobby projects deployed on GKE).

If you were self-hosting k8s, then I'd agree with you.

I think it is more like: 10+ servers OR 10+ developers. you can have 10+ services as a single developer ;)
