I don't get it I thought k8s was like the perfect match for Go? K8s is even written in Go. I know that doesn't strictly mean it must be easy to use Go, but it seems weird that it wouldn't be K8s best experience.

It has a reputation for being terrible Go code.

The post is referring to the codebase of k8s itself, not the experience of deploying go code to k8s.

My read is that it just go too big and they didn't do a great job of keeping up with golang. Last I looked it was still not module compatible fully.

It actually started as a Java project until the team got some strong advocates.
