Am I doing myself a disservice by actively avoiding shops that want to go down the k8s road?

Asking in interviews questions like “how many namespaces are you managing or expecting to manage” and often times teams are talking about a single microservice and bringing in k8s “just in case”

To which I’ve oft said “good luck in your endeavors”

From the resume-driven-development angle, probably. I do the same though.

If you prefer to work in a sane environment though, wise choice.

K8s solves a specific set of problems that mid- to large-sized companies face. If the company is big enough to have multiple K8s experts then it can be successful
