Most cloud users will have a VM somewhere which you also have to manage.

Not at all. GCP, AWS, and Digital Ocean all have PaaS/serverless systems that eliminate the concept of VM (from your perspective). I haven't managed a production VM in many years.

Even Elastic Beanstalk, which is just EC2 instances have a checkbox for automatic 0 down time updates.
